Vallabhbhai Patel (1875-1950) – Letter - a letter, handwritten in Gujerati, just seven months before Patel's passing. It is notable as he signs the letter 'Blessings from Bapu' - Bapu being the name Gandhi went by. Gandhi had been assassinated less than two years prior in 1948, and Patel, being Gandhi's most loyal follower and close friend briefly adopted the same name in respect for his friend; Telephone: 40407 Vallabhbhai Patel 1, Aurangzeb Road New Delhi Date: 23.04.50 Dear Jitu, Do not feel sad about the passing of Nanduben. I did not have any doubt that she will not stay after the passing of doctor. She spend her entire life as Sati and saint Hindu woman. And she felt the happiness in serving several people. So there is nothing to mourn about her passing away. She has become immortal. She has only lived to serve the doctor, otherwise she had lost interest in the life after the illness of the doctor. It can be considered as your fortune that you could take the benefit to serve her in her final illness. Now you quickly get out of the mourning and do not worry about anything. You will miss your parents now. You are the heir of a very virtuous parents, so it is okay if you cannot enhance their glory, but please never do anything that fade it. Give the patience and consolation to Sumitra. Blessings from Bapu. On Patel's personal headed stationery. Written in black ink to a single side. Some folds. 17.5cm x 13cm, approx. Vallabhbhai Jhaverbhai Patel (31 October 1875 – 15 December 1950), endeared as Sardar, was an Indian statesman. He served as the first Deputy Prime Minister of India from 1947 to 1950. He was a barrister and a senior leader of the Indian National Congress, who played a leading role in the country's struggle for independence, guiding its integration into a united, independent nation. He was one of the conservative members of the Indian National Congress. In India and elsewhere, he was often called Sardar, meaning "chief" in Hindi, Urdu, and Persian. He acted as the Home Minister during the political integration of India and the Indo-Pakistani War of 1947. One of Mahatma Gandhi's earliest political lieutenants, he organised peasants from Kheda, Borsad, and Bardoli in Gujarat in non-violent civil disobedience against the British Raj, becoming one of the most influential leaders in Gujarat. He was appointed as the 49th President of Indian National Congress, organising the party for elections in 1934 and 1937 while promoting the Quit India Movement.
