Observing that the English rulers did not intend to see India remain "Akhand" post-Independence, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh today said it was Sardar Patel who united the country.
"...It was not the intention of Englishmen that India remains intact (Akhand Bharat). But, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel united more than 562 princely states with India," he said, after paying tributes to the 'Iron Man of India' on his birth anniversary here.
