Our fight is for truth and that is what Satyagraha means. It is a fight between the people and blind Government. The Government has decided to forcibly realise land revenue. . . the people would accept all the troubles, but would not pay land revenue.

To Farmers : -
There is nothing to be gained from the loyalty of a cowardly and cringing public. . . The brave man, who has inspired this fight however, is capable of converting the cowardly into the bravest of persons.

SPEECH AT PRAYER MEETING - 15 August 1947 - Gandhiji

SPEECH AT PRAYER MEETING - GANDHIJI - 15 August 1947

Sardar Patel

#independenceday


Gandhiji congratulated Calcutta on Hindus and Muslims meeting together in perfect friendliness. Muslims shouted the same slogans of joy as the Hindus. They flew the tricolour without the slightest hesitation. What was more, the Hindus were admitted to mosques and Muslims were admitted to the Hindu mandirs. This news reminded him of the Khilafat days when Hindus and Muslims fraternized with one another. If this exhibition was from the heart and was not a momentary impulse, it was better than the Khilafat days. The simple reason was that they had both drunk the poison cup of disturbances. The nectar of friendliness should, therefore, taste sweeter than before. He was however sorry to hear that in a certain part the poor Muslims experienced molestation. He hoped that Calcutta including Howrah will be entirely free from the communal virus for ever. Then indeed they need have no fear about East Bengal and the rest of India. He was sorry, therefore, to hear that madness still reged in Lahore. He could hope and feel sure that the noble example of Calcutta, if it was sincere, would affect the Punjab and the other parts of India. He then referred to Chittagong. Rain was no respecter of persons. It engulfed both Muslims and Hindus. It was the duty of the whole of Bengal to feel one with the sufferers of Chittagong.

He then referred to the fact thet the people realizing that India was free, took possession of the Government House and in affection besieged their new Governor Rajaji. He would be glad if it meant only a token of the people’s power. But he would be sick and sorry if the people thought that they could do what they liked with the Government and other property. That would be criminal lawlessness. He hoped, therefore, that they had of their own accord vacated the Governor’s palace as readily as they had occupied it. He would warn the people that now that they were free, they would use the freedom with wise restraint. They should know that they were to treat the Europeans who stayed in India with the same regard as they would expect for themselves. They must know that they were masters of no one but of themselves.

They must not compel anyone to do anything against his will.

Lord Mountbatten

Letter to Dr. Rajendra Prasad from Lord Mountbatten – 14-08-1947

 

Dear Dr. Rajendra Prasad,

 

I cannot leave my active participation in Cabinet work without writing a line to express my sincere appreciation of the loyal support you have given me as a Member of the Interim Government during my short period of Viceroyalty. No one could pretend that the Coalition Ministry was an easy partnership, particularly with partition looming so large in the background; but you and your colleagues made my task easy and thus proved yourselves true statesmen of whom your country can well be proud.

I shall look forward to the honour of being received by you as President of the Constituent Assembly tomorrow.

With this letter I am sending you a small informal photograph of myself in the hope that you will accept it as a souvenir of the historic time that we were colleagues together in the Cabinet.

All best wishes to you and the Dominion of India.

 

Yours Sincerely,

Mountbatten of Burma

 

Letter to Lord Mountbatten from Rajendra Prasad – 15-08-1947

 

Dear Lord Mountbatten,

Please accept my sincere thanks for the very kind and generous letter appreciating the work of the Interim Cabinet. I need hardly assure you that I have felt it a proud privilege to be associated with you, and although the position undergoes a change today, I am looking forward to serve the country under your guidance. We need sympathy and support and your great experience of men and affairs and especially your sympathetic understanding of our problems will be invaluable to us.

Let me also offer my grateful appreciation of the photograph which you have sent me and the kindly feeling behind the present. I will treasure it as a souvenir of our happy association in a most momentous period of our history.

 

Yours sincerely

Rajendra Prasad

President

NO IMPASSABLE BARRIERS

NO IMPASSABLE BARRIERS

Statement of policy governing the princely States, New Delhi, July 5, 1947


It was announced some days back that the Government of India had decided to set up a Department to conduct their relations with the States in matters of common concern. This Department has come into being today and the States have been informed to this effect. On this important occasion I have a few words to say to the Rulers of Indian States among whom I am happy to count many as my personal friends.

It is the lesson of history that it was owing to her politically-fragmented condition and our inability to make a united stand that India succumbed to successive waves of invaders. Our mutual conflicts and internecine quarrels and jealousies have in the past been the cause of our downfall and our falling victims to foreign domination a number of times. We cannot afford to fall into those errors or traps again. We are on the threshold of independence. It is true that we have not been able to preserve the unity of the country entirely unimpaired in the final stage. To the bitter disappointment and sorrow of many of us some parts have chosen to go out of India and to set up their own Government. But there can be no question that despite this separation a fundamental homogeneity of culture and sentiment reinforced by the compulsive logic of mutual interests would continue to govern us. Much more would this be the case with that vast majority of States which, owing to their geographical contiguity and indissoluble ties, economic, cultural and political, must continue to maintain relations of mutual friendship and co-operation with the rest of India. The safety and preservation of these States as well as of India demand unity and mutual cooperation between its different parts.

When the British established their rule in India, they evolved the doctrine of Paramountcy which established the supremacy of British interests. That doctrine has remained undefined to this day, but in its exercise there has undoubtedly been more subordination than co-operation. Outside the field of Paramountcy there has been a very wide scope in which relations between British India and the States have been regulated by enlightened mutual interests. Now that British rule is ending, the demand has been made that the States should regain their independence. In so far as Paramountcy embodied the submission of States to foreign will, I have every sympathy with this demand, but I do not think it can be their desire to utilise this freedom from domination in a manner which is injurious to the common interests of India or which militates against the ultimate Paramountcy of popular interests and welfare or which might result in the abandonment of that mutually useful relationship that has developed between British India and Indian States during the last century. This has been amply demonstrated by the fact that a great majority of Indian States has already come into the Constituent Assembly. To those who have not done so, I appeal that they should join now.

This country, with its institutions, is the proud heritage of the people who inhabit it. It is an accident that some live in the States and some in British India, but all alike partake of its culture and character. We are all knit together by bonds of blood and feeling no less than of self-interest. None can segregate us into segments; no impassable barriers can be set up between us. I suggest that it is therefore better for us to make laws sitting together as friends than to make treaties as aliens. I invite my friends, the Rulers of States and their people, to the councils of the Constituent Assembly in this spirit of friendliness and co-operation in a joint endeavour, inspired by common allegiance to our mother-land for the common good of us all.

There appears to be a great deal of misunderstanding about the attitude of the Congress towards the States. I should like to make it clear that it is not the desire of the Congress to interfere in any manner whatever with the domestic affairs of the States. They are no enemies of the Princely Order, but, on the other hand, they wish them and their people under this aegis all prosperity, contentment and happiness. Nor would it be my policy to conduct the relations of the new Department with the States in any manner which savours of the domination of one over the other; if there would be any domination, it would be that of our mutual interests and welfare. We have no ulterior motive or selfish interests to serve. Our common objective should be to understand each other’s point of view and come to decisions acceptable to all and in the best interests of the country. With this object, I propose to explore the possibility of associating with the administration of the new Department a Standing Committee representative of both the States and British India.

We are at a momentous stage in the history of India. By common endeavour we can raise the country to a new greatness while lack of unity will expose us to fresh calamities. I hope the Indian States will bear in mind that the alternative to co-operation in the general interest is anarchy and chaos which will overwhelm great and small in a common ruin if we are unable to act together in the minimum of common tasks. Let not the future generation curse us for having had the opportunity but having failed to turn it to our mutual advantage. Instead, let it be our proud privilege to leave a legacy of mutually beneficial relationship which would raise this sacred land to its proper place amongst the nations of the world and turn it into an abode of peace and prosperity.

What did Sardar Patel tell the people of Mumbai about the government's challenge?


16th July 1934

जेल से छुटने के बाद रविवार की शाम कांग्रेस हाउस परिसर में सरदार वल्लभभाई पटेलने बंबई की जनता को, खासतौर से कांग्रेस सोशलिस्ट पार्टीके लोगो को, पहली बार पूरी गरमाहट के साथ उद्बबोधित किया कि आगामी कांग्रेस अधिवेशन को पूर्ण रूप से सफल बनाए और कांग्रेस कार्यकर्ताओ के बीच फूट न पडने दे।

आगे बढते हुए सरदार वल्लभभाई ने कहा कि जब वह जेल में थे तो अनेक राजनीतिक परिवर्तन हुए हैं, किंतु स्वाधीनता की लडाई जो एक बार शुरू हो गई है, वह तब तक कभी बंध नही होगी जब तक लक्ष्य प्राप्त नही हो जाता। यह जगजाहिर था कि वह परिषद में प्रवेश लेने के कट्टर विरोधी थे। किंतु अब जब कांग्रेसने इस कार्यक्रम के लिए निर्णय्ह ले लिया है तो वह इस निर्णय का पूरी निष्ठा के साथ पालन करेंगे। जो कदम कांग्रेस ने उठा लिया है, उसके बारे में अब प्रश्न करने से कोई लाभ नहीं है। लोग स्वयं ऐसी स्थिति पैदा करने के लिए जिम्मेदार है, जिसके कारण यह कदम उठाने की आवश्यकता पडी। यदि स्थिति भिन्न होती तो परिषद में प्रवेश की बात करने की कोई हिम्मत नही करता।

"अब विचार-वस्तु बिलकुल स्पष्ट था। चुनाव लडने का निर्णय कर लेने के बाद अब उनका यह कर्तव्य है कि वे यह सुनिश्चित करे कि विधानसभा पर अधिकर कर लेंगे। उनकि प्रतिष्ठा दांव पर थी। सरकारने एक चुनौति दी थी और कांग्रेस ने उसे स्वीकार किया था। वर्तमान समय यह विचार करने का नहीं था कि उन्होने सही कदम उठाया या गलत ! वोट देने के अपने अधिकार का पूरा-पूरा इस्तेमाल करेंं और यह सुनिश्चित करेंंकि अधिक से अधिक कांग्रेस जन विधानसभा में निर्वाचित होकर पहुंचे। तब मेरे पास आइए और मैं आपको रास्ता दिखाउंगा।


उन्होने दुहराया कि परिषद में प्रवेश के कार्यक्रम में जिन लोगो का विश्वास है, वे कांग्रेस में अपनी निष्ठा के कारण कांग्रेस प्रत्याशी का समर्थन करने के लिए बाध्य हैं। अपने इस कर्तव्य का पालन कर लेने के बाद वे सरदार के पास आ सकते है। तब वे उन्हें रास्ता दिखाएंगे।

आगामी चुनावों में कांग्रेस प्रत्याशी की सफलता या विफलता अत्याधिक महत्व रखती है। चुनावों में बहुमत न प्राप्त कर पाने का अर्थ सरकार की दमनकारी नीतियोंं और महात्मा गांधी के बंदीकरण का औचित्य समझा जाएगा"।

12-June-1928 Bardoli Diwas - બારડોલી દિન

12-June-1928 Bardoli Diwas - બારડોલી દિન


વલ્લભભાઈએ અમદાવાદ મ્યુનિસિપાલિટીના પ્રમુખપદને છોડીને સત્યાગ્રહમાં ઝંપલાવ્યું

મકોટી ગામનાં ભીખીબહેને સૌપ્રથમ કહ્યું, ‘વલ્લભભાઈ, આજથી તમે અમારા સરદાર.’

સરદાર પોતાની ગામઠી શૈલીમાં એવાં ભાષણ કરતા હતા કે મડદાં પણ બેઠાં થઈ જાય

દેશભરનો પ્રવાસ કરતા સરદાર પટેલમાં રાજાજીને લોકમાન્ય ટિળકનાં દર્શન થવા લાગ્યાં

મહાભારતનું યુધ્ધ થયું તે પણ ૧૮ દિવસમાં પુરુ થયેલ, પરંતુ બારડોલીના લોકોએ કે જેઓએ ક્યારેય લડવા માટે લાકડી પણ  ઉગામી નહોતી, તેમણે ચાર ચાર મહીનાથી બ્રિટિશ સરકારને હંફાવી ઐતિહાસિક જીત ખેડુતોએ મેળવી તેનો અમુલ્ય વારસો ભવિષ્યની પ્રજા માટે રાખી જશે.

ચાર માસમાં તો બારડોલી અને તેના લોકો ન ધાર્યુ હોય તેવા પ્રસિધ્ધ માત્ર ગુજરાતમાં જ નહી પરંતુ સમગ્ર દેશમાં થઈ ગયા. તેઓ પ્રસિધ્ધ થયા તેનું તેમને ખ્યાલ જ નહોતો અને કદાચ આ કારણ તેમના સત્યાગ્રહને શોભાવનાર હતી અને તેઓ જો પ્રસિધ્ધિ માટે સત્યાગ્રહ કર્યો હોત તો આ લડાઈ ક્યારનીય સમેટાઈ ગયી હોત. તારીખ ૧૨ જુન ૧૯૨૮ના રોજ બારડોલી દિન તરીકે આખા દેશમાં  ઊજવવામાં આવ્યો. ગુજરાતના સેકડો ગામમાં તો જાણે દિવાળી ઉજવાતી હોય તેમ આ દિવસની ઉજવણી થઈ. બારડોલીના સત્યાગ્રહીઓએ ૨૪ કલાકના ઉપવાસ કર્યા અને પ્રાર્થના સભાઓ કરી. મુંબઈના યુવકોનો તો ઉત્સાહ જ અનેરો હતો. તેમણે ઘેર ઘેર જઈ ઉઘરાણા કર્યા અને સરદાર સાહેબ મુંબઈ આવે ત્યારે તેમને ભેટ ધરવાની આલિશાન તૈયારીઓ કરી.

સત્યાગ્રહ માટે ફંડ તો બારડોલી આવતું જ હતુ પરંતુ નવજીવન અને યંગ ઈંડિયાની ઓફીસે પણ ફંડ આવતા ગયા, આ ફંડ ફક્ત ભારતમાંથી જ નહી પરંતુ દેશ વિદેશમાં જેવા કે બેલ્જિયમ, ફ્રાંસ, જાપાન, ન્યુઝીલેંડ, ચીન, ફીજી વગેરે દેશોમાંથી પણ આવતા હતા. દક્ષિણ આફ્રિકાથી આવતું ફંડ તો જાણે બારડોલીનું જ ગણાય.

અમદાવાદના મજુર મંડળે આ લડતમાં પુરેપુરો રસ લીધો અને ગરીબ મજુરોએ એક એક આનાની રસીદો કાઢી, મહામહેનતે બચાવેલા પોતાના પરસેવાના પૈસા એક એક આનામાંથી દોઢ હજાર જેટલી રકમ ફંડ મોકલ્યા. સુપા ગુરુકુળના બ્રહ્મચારીઓએ તો કેટલાય દિવસ સુધી ધી દુધનો ત્યાગ કર્યો અને મજુરી કરી પાંસઠ રુપિયા આપ્યા. બંગાળના અભય આશ્રામના કાર્યાકર્તાઓએ શાકભાજીનો ત્યાગ કરી પોતાની નાનકડી રકમ મોકલી. ચોર્યાસી તાલુકાના ખેડુતોએ વાંઝ ખાતે ખુબ મોટી પરિષદ ભરી વલ્લભભાઈને લગભગ અઢી હજાર રુપિયા આપ્યા અને જાહેર કર્યુ કે મહેસૂલ તો અમે પરાણે ભર્યુ કારણ કે તે સમયે અમે સત્યાગ્રહ માટે તૈયાર નહોતા.

વલ્લભભાઈ એ “બારડોલી દિન” દિવસે બારડોલીમાં ભાષણ કર્યુ તે ભાષણમાં સરકારે ખાલસા કરેલ જમીનોની ખરીદદારી કરનાર જમીનદારોને આકરા શબ્દોમાં કહ્યું

“કોઈ પણ ખેડુત કે સાહુકારની એક ચાસ પણ જમીન જ્યાં સુધી ખાલસા થયેલ હશે ત્યાં સુધી આ લડતનો અંત નહી આવે અને હજારો ખેડુતો તેના ઉપર પોતાના માથા આપશે, એ કાંઈ ધર્મરાજાનો લુંટાતો ગોળ નથી કે ભરુચ જઈ એક ઘાસલેટવાળા પારસીને લાવ્યા કે જે જેમ ફાવે તેમ લુંટ મારી શકે. આ જાહેર સભામાંથી ચેતવણી આપુ છું કે આ જમીન રાખતા પહેલાં પુરતો વિચાર કરજો. ખેડુતોનું લોહી પીવા આવવાનું છે, ને તેમ કરનારનો ઈન્સાફ પણ પ્રભુ આ જીંદગીમાં કેવો કરે તે ન ભુલજો. આ મફતમાં જમીન લેવા આવનારાની પેલા નાળિયેરના લોભિયા બ્રાહ્મણની જેવી દશા થઈ હતી તેવી થવાની છે એ ખચીત માનજો.”

બારડોલીના ઘણા લોકો સરદારને મળ્યા પણ નહોતા પરંતુ તેઓના દિલમાં સરદાર પ્રત્યે આદર અને વિશ્વાસ દર્શાવતો એક પ્રસંગ મહાદેવભાઈ દેસાઈએ સુંદર રીતે આલેખ્યો છે.

એક સમયે જપ્તીના એક અધિકારીએ તેના માણસોને આદેશ આપ્યો કે તે ગામને ઘેરો ઘેરે. દેખીતી રીતે તે એક જ મકાન હતુંપરંતુ ખરેખરતે એક આખી શેરી હતી જેને ઘેરી લેવામાં આવી હતીકારણ કે ઘરની સામે સશસ્ત્ર પોલીસ કર્મચારીઓ એક સર્કલ ઇન્સ્પેક્ટર અને પાછળના દરવાજા પર રક્ષક બનેલા બે પઠાણ કોઈપણ દરવાજાને પછાડીને અંદર ખોલવા તૈયાર હતા. આ માણસો ત્યાં સવારે ૨ વાગ્યે તૈનાત કરવામાં આવ્યા હતા અને અમે સ્થળની મુલાકાત લીધાં ત્યાં સુધી સાંજના ૬ વાગ્યા સુધી ત્યાં હતા. આ ઘર લગભગ ૭૫ વર્ષના વૃદ્ધ સરકારી પેન્શનરનું હતું. તેમણે સત્યાગ્રહના પ્રતિજ્ઞાપત્ર પર સહી પણ કરી ન હતી. પરંતુ અધિકારીએ વિચાર્યું કે કેદીને મજબૂર કરવાની શ્રેષ્ઠ રીત એ છે કે તેના ઘરને ઘેરા હેઠળ રાખવું. વૃદ્ધાની પત્ની ઘરની બારી પર એક બારી પાસે બેઠેલી હતીહાથમાં ગુલાબ અને રામનું  નામ જપન કરતી હતી. 'મને આશા છે કે વૃદ્ધ માતાતમે ડરશો નહીં,' સરદારને તેના ઘરની બહારથી પૂછ્યું. 'જ્યારે તમે અમારી રક્ષા કરવા માટે હોવ ત્યારે મારે કેમ ડરવું જોઈએ?' તેણીએ જવાબ આપ્યો. 'હું નહીંરામ,' સરદારે તેને સુધારતા કહ્યું, 'રામ ભગવાન દયાળુ છે,' તેણીએ સંમતિ આપતા કહ્યું. 'પણ તમને તમારા દરવાજા પર આ પઠાણ અને પોલીસકર્મી કેવી ગમશે?' અમને એક પૂછ્યું. 'તેમનું ખૂબ સ્વાગત છે. પણ જો તેઓ ન હોત તો સરદારે મારા ઘર પર કૃપા કરી ન હોત.'

કોઈ હતાશાના શબ્દો ન હતાકે કોઈ ગુસ્સો નથીતેમ છતાં વૃદ્ધ સ્ત્રી તે પંદર કલાકથી ઘરની બહાર જઇ શક્યા ન હતા!

બારડોલી દિન જેમ જેમ નજીક આવતો ગયો તેમ તેમ લોકોમાં લડતનો જુસ્સો રગેરગમાં ઉતરી ગયો હતો. સરદારે બારડોલી દિન પ્રસંગે કહ્યુ

“આજે હવે કુદરતમાં હવા બદલાતી ચાલી છે. આ પહેલાં ચૈત્રવૈશાખનો સખત તાપ હતો, ખુબ ઉકળાટ હતો, છેવટ ગાજવીજ થઈ કડાકા થયા, અને પરિણામે અમૃતવૃષ્ટિ થવા લાગી છે. સરકારે પણ ખુબ તાપ કર્યો, પ્રજાને અત્યંત ઉકળાટ કરાવ્યો. પણ કુદરતની પેથે તેમાંથી  અમૃતને બદલે ઝેર વરસે તોયે એ ઝેરને અમૃત ગણી ગળી જવાની આપણને ઈશ્વર તાકાત આપે એવી પ્રાર્થાના કરવાને આપણે ભેગા થયા છીએ.”

ત્રિભુવનદાસ પટેલ – અમુલડેરીના સ્વપ્નદ્રષ્ટા અને ખેડા દૂધ ઉત્પાદક મંડળી લીમિટેડના સ્થાપક પિતા

વિશ્વભરમાં આજે જેનું નામ પ્રચલિત બન્યુ છે અને અમુલ મોડેલ તરીકે સમગ્ર ભારતમાં જેનો સ્વીકાર કરવામાં આવ્યો છે તે અમુલ ડેરીના સ્વપ્નદ્રષ્ટા ત્રિભુવનદાસ પટેલનો જન્મ આણંદમાં ૨૨-૧૦-૧૯૦૩માં પિતા કિશીભાઈ પટેલને ત્યાં થયો. સહકારી મંડળીઓ એક સાથે કેવી રીતે કાર્ય કરી શકે અને નાના નાના પશુપાલકો તથા સ્ત્રીઓ આત્મનિર્ભર બની શકે તેનું એક માત્ર મોડલ અમુલ ડેરી ભારતને ભેટમાં મળ્યું અને વિશ્વભરમાં આજે એક માત્ર સહકારી સંસ્થા બની.

ગુજરાત વિદ્યાપીઠમાં વિધ્યાજીવનમાં જ તેઓ ગાંધીજી અને સરદાર વલ્લભભાઈના વિચારોથી પ્રભાવિત થઈ આઝાદીની ચળવળમાં જોડાયા. પરિણામે ઈ.સ. ૧૯૩૦માં મીઠાના સત્યાગ્રહ નિમિત્તે અને ઈ.સ. ૧૯૪૦-૪૧માં સત્યાગ્રહ માટે તેમણે જેલવાસ પણ ભોગવવો પડ્યો હતો. વલ્લભભાઈ પટેલના માર્ગદર્શન હેઠળ ઈ.સ. ૧૯૪૦માં ખેડા જિલ્લાના ખેડુતો સાથે મળી સહકારી મંડળીની સ્થાપના કરી. તે સમયે ખેડુતો પાસેથી ખુબ ઓછા ભાવે દુધ ખરીદીને મુંબઈમાં ઊંચા દામે દુધ વેચતી “પોલસન” કંપનીથી ખેડુતો ત્રાસેલા હતા. બધાએ ભેગા મળી “ખેડા જીલ્લા દુધ ઉત્પાદક સહકારી મંડળી લિમિટેડ”ની શરુઆત કરી. ઈ.સ. ૧૯૫૦થી ડો. વર્ગીસ કુરિયનનો સાથ મળતા બન્નેની જુગલબંધી જામી અને અમુલ ડેરીનો વિકાસ હરણફાળે વિસ્તર્યો.

સહકારી મંડળીની સ્થાપના અંગેના વિચારબીજનું વાવેતર કરનાર સરદાર વલ્લભભાઈ પટેલ હતા; તેના સ્વપ્નદ્રષ્ટા હતા ત્રિભુવનદાસ પટેલ અને તે સ્વપ્નના શિલ્પી હતા ડો. વર્ગીસ કુરિયન.

ત્રિભુવનદાસ પટેલને કોમ્યુનિટી લીડરશીપ માટે ફીલીપાઈંસનો રેમન મેગ્સેસે અવોર્ડ આપવામાં આવ્યો હતો, ૨૮-૦૪-૧૯૬૪માં ભારત સરકાર તરફથી પદ્મભુષણ અવોર્ડ અપવામાં આવ્યો. ૧૯૭૧માં અમુલ ડેરીના અધ્યક્ષ સ્થાનેથી સ્વૈચ્છિક નિવૃત્તિ લીધી ત્યારે પ્રચંડ લોકાદર સાંપડ્યો. દરેક સભ્યોએ પોતાની ઈચ્છાથી એક એક રુપિયો એકત્ર કરી છ લાખ એંશી હજાર રૂપિયાની ભેટ કરી આ રકમ ત્રિભુવનદાસ પટેલે તેમના પત્ની મણીબેન સાથે ત્રિભુવનદાસ ફાઉંડેશનની શરૂઆત કરી અને આ ફાઉંડેશન આજે પણ સ્ત્રીઓ, બાળકોના સ્વાસ્થની તેમજ પશુચિકિત્સાની સેવાનો લાભ છસોથી પણ વધુ ગામને મળી રહ્યો છે.

ગુજરાત સરકાર દ્વારા ધોરણ ૧૦માં એક અધ્યાય પણ ભણાવવામાં આવી રહ્યો છે.
