(MENAFN- Live Mint) Rashtriya Ekta Diwas 2024: On the occasion of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel's birth anniversary, a 'run for Unity' is being organised in the national capital city, New Delhi, on October 29. Although Vallabhbhai Patel's birth anniversary falls on October 31, this time, it is being celebrated across India on Tuesday, October 29, as announced by Prime Minister Modi during Mann Ki Baat address. The change in the date of the celebration was made considering the clash with the Diwali celebrations on Thursday.
Thus, 'Run For Unity' will be held on October 29 this year and dedicated to the 'Iron Man of India', who played a pivotal role in unifying the diverse princely states to form the modern Indian nation. 'Run for Unity' in Delhi will be flagged off at 7:41 am on Tuesday from Gate No. 1 of Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium. It will move left to C-Hexagon and right on Radial opposite Shahjahan Road.
