His leadership and diplomacy helped to bring about the unification of more than 500 princely states into the newly independent India.

Patel was a champion of democracy, secularism, and social justice. He worked tirelessly to improve the lives of India's farmers and laborers and was a strong advocate for women's rights. He was also a proponent of non-violent resistance and worked closely with Mahatma Gandhi in the Indian independence movement.

Patel is widely regarded as one of the most important and influential leaders in Indian history. He is revered as a hero and his contributions to India's struggle for independence and nation-building continue to inspire people in India and around the world.
