India surrounded with possibilities, not incapabilities: Rajnath

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ India is “surrounded with possibilities, not with incapabilities,” Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said on Wednesday, while flagging off a ‘Run for Unity’ here to commemorate the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel.

“Sitting inside my office when I see Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel’s photograph hanging on a wall, I think we are surrounded with possibilities not with incapabilities,” the Minister said.

Praising Patel’s role in India’s unity amid the tumultuous years post Independence in 1947, Rajnath Singh said the nation was deeply indebted to him for integrating 562 princely states into the Indian Union.

“It was India’s bloodless revolution. He completed this difficult task within 70 days because of his determination. Had he not integrated these states into the Indian Union, the current situation of the country would have been different. We would have needed visa to visit these states,” the Minister said.
