Unity Run: Amit Shah Flags Off Run for Unity in Delhi

Delhi witnessed two major political events as the country marked Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s 151st birth anniversary and former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi’s death anniversary. Union Home Minister Amit Shah flagged off the “Run for Unity” in the presence of Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and BJP leaders. People from different age groups participated in the event, which carried a message of national unity and integrity. Addressing the gathering, Shah spoke about Sardar Patel’s contribution and alleged that previous governments had not given him the recognition he deserved.
