Vallabhbhai Patel (1875-1950) – Letter - a handwritten letter in Gujerati on 'Member Of Cabinet' stationery: New Delhi Date: 12/5/47 To Jitubhai I received your letter dated 23rd. I received it today only. It is true that the current Ahmedabad is not same as what it was 10 years ago. I can understand that you do not like to be in Ahmedabad. But you are thinking of leaving India forever. That I do not like. In it I see some selfish instinct. It is possible that you might be happier there. But in life there are service to mankind and other duties besides self-pleasure. This cannot be forgotten. We cannot leave our moral duties we have toward other place, toward the nation and toward the relatives. No matter you can return if Doctor and elder uncle have agreed with you. I don’t have objection in it but I do not like the thought to leave the nation permanently and becoming a foreigner. So think on it completely. Hope there is no hurry, but right now the only decision is to be taken is whether to go there for the sake of achieving degree or not. If both of them is giving you the consent for that, then you can go happily. If doctor is thinking of leaving the Ahmedabad, then there is no reason to keep the house in Ahmedabad. What is the benefit to keep the useless expense? Now there is no company for them as before. As the older companions have gone or left out so now he has become alone. If the elder brother leaves with him then the mental condition could be better. But the question remains whether Nandubahen would like to be in Mumbai or not. If they both like to live in Mumbai, then the Ahmedabad’s house should be picked up. If you think of going abroad, then you should not waste much time. Blessings from Vallabhbhai. Written in black ink to both sides of paper. Some folds and general staining. 24cm x 17cm, approx. The letter is dated just a few months before India gained independence and shortly before Patel was sworn in as India's first Deputy Prime Minister. Vallabhbhai Jhaverbhai Patel (31 October 1875 – 15 December 1950), endeared as Sardar, was an Indian statesman. He served as the first Deputy Prime Minister of India from 1947 to 1950. He was a barrister and a senior leader of the Indian National Congress, who played a leading role in the country's struggle for independence, guiding its integration into a united, independent nation. He was one of the conservative members of the Indian National Congress. In India and elsewhere, he was often called Sardar, meaning "chief" in Hindi, Urdu, and Persian. He acted as the Home Minister during the political integration of India and the Indo-Pakistani War of 1947. One of Mahatma Gandhi's earliest political lieutenants, he organised peasants from Kheda, Borsad, and Bardoli in Gujarat in non-violent civil disobedience against the British Raj, becoming one of the most influential leaders in Gujarat. He was appointed as the 49th President of Indian National Congress, organising the party for elections in 1934 and 1937 while promoting the Quit India Movement.
