Mahatma Gandhi has already been declared father of Nation and is found on currency notes but Sardar Patel has no title except for Iron Man of India so where does one get to see the Iron Man hence the tallest statue in the world. So you decide if there is any politics in this.

Mahatma Gandhi and Nehru had enough monuments and institutions made in their name, one should remember it was not only Mahatma who got independence so other leaders should also be respected. Mahatma is just one aspect. Just for the sake of arguing a politicizing with your skills cannot fool Mr Tharoor, keep your frustration to your self.
He is just talking non-sense In the last 70 years, Congress has been installing Gandhi and Nehru statues all over India sidelining Netaji Patel Shashtri Ji or be it Dr Rajendra Prasad who were also equally important leaders if not more important than Gandhi, Nehru as per thinking of Congress like him.
Mr Tharoor Sir, I request political leaders please do not politicize our honourable freedom fighters. Your question is more relevant to Congress. Your party has ruled India for almost 6 decades and unable to build a majestic statue for great personalities like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Mahatma Gandhi.
