Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das today took part in the 'Run for Unity' organized to commemorate the 142nd birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabbhai Patel here.
Patel's will-power and vision had resulted in approximately 550 self-governing princely states merging with the country, Das said while addressing a gathering at the 'Run for Unity' programme.

India is emerging robust under the leadership of Narendra Modi, he said referring to the outcome of Indo-China stand off on Doklam issue in Sikkim.
China had to withdraw its army from Doklam, he said adding that national unity, integrity and love for the nation were the need of the hour.
