so you think that Patel was better than Nehru.

No doubt he was, so Haydraba, Junagarh, Jodhpur and Kashmir is part of India.

Can't say exactly. But Nehru was more popular. Again Patel lived very short. Whatever decision were taken, Nehru would be ultimately P.M. for good many years even if Patel were first P.M.  It cannot be said that Patel would longer if he were first P.M. 

Secondly, most of the article does not contain anything new. Most of the content is rumor based.  

In retrospect one could say Patel did not live log so it does not matter ...however, even in a short period of time one could make a great impact and with his ideology there probably would have been a different India today with less communal disturbances which was the direst result of the shoddy manner in which certain issues were handled..

Patel is aptly" described as "Loh Purush". A brave man , who does what he thinks right.

 

 

The very fact that even a person like Gandhi could not be really fair in his allocation of personalities tells us how easy it is for masses an small time leaders to be swept away by glitter an glamour. They fail to see beyond that and think that is all that counts in a leader ..

It is not in hand of person how they would longer. It is right that Nehru was popular than Patel but Patel was more efficient that Nehru.

There is a saying there is no smoke without fire similarly , so called rumors have some truth on which the rumors are based. The manner in which the Nehru family has been cultivated through the years shows a single minded dedication towards making India a family ruled proposition which seemed to have succeeded to a large extent , probably due to the ignorance of the masses and clever manipulation of the concerned political leaders ..

There are elements who would make vicious propaganda continuously and make others that there must be some truth as there is no smoke without fire. This is just technique of the rumor makers. Undoubtedly there has been continuous propaganda by fascist and saffron elements to malign the secular forces. They have spread canards against Nehru and Indira Gandhi dubbing them as 'Muslim'.  Such vicious propaganda is available on U Tube. One such  piece of propaganda is that Moti Lal Nehru's parents were Muslim and Firoz Gandhi, Indira Gandhi's husband was a Muslim even though he was Parsi. There is not only false propaganda against Nehru but this has also communal and fascist angle.  the

It's a Historic fact, that Patel, through Police Action,merged all the Princely States with India.There was both Smoke and Fire.

I read in one book that Nehru was not assured that Indian army can push back to Pakistan army in short period and with limited sources. But Patel was assured and order to army chief for action in Kashmir.

 

 

There are some contradictory accounts about both the personalities which is possible because it depends on peoples perception of these people and at times may nt be entirely factual. However, both were equally capable of leading the nation ..

You are right both are capable person but situation which India was facing at the time of Independence, Patel may be proved better than Nehru.

I too agree with that because Patel apparently had a single minded determination which would have helped India greatly during those formative years which sort of paved the way for future turn of events.
