Sardar@150: Schools Celebrating 150th Birth Year of Sardar Patel.

Sardar@150 is a worldwide initiative to celebrate the 150th birth anniversary of the Iron Man of India, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. This year-long celebration aims to inspire unity, patriotism, and a deeper understanding of his invaluable contributions to our nation.
