Had Patel been first PM, BJP and RSS would not have existed: Digvijaya Singh

Yesterday, the function to mark the inauguration of the renovated Sardar Patel Museum in Ahmedabad virtually turned into a verbal duel between the PM and BJP's prime ministerial contender, when Modi said that India's "fate and face" would have been different had Patel been its first Prime Minister.

"The country will always have one complaint, every Indian will always regret and feel the pain. Had Sardar Saheb been our first prime minister, the country's fate would have been different, the country's face would have been different," Modi said.
