“Gandhi didn’t name Sardar for PM post because he was ill and old”
Ahmedabad, 5 January, 2011
Author of perhaps the best book available on Shri Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, and grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, Shri Rajmohan Gandhi today said that Gandhi didn’t name Sardar Patel for the Prime Minister’s post because Patel was very ill and old.
Speaking at IIT-Gandhinagar campus, Rajmohan Gandhi said, “The main reason why Gandhi could not name Patel Prime Minister was Patel was very ill, he was very old,”
“Patel belonged to Gandhi’s generation, Javaharlal was leading to next generation,” he added.
