Explanationव्याख्या
Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel was the first Deputy Prime Minister of independent India.
He served from 1947 to 1950 during Jawaharlal Nehru's prime ministership.
Patel also served as Home Minister and played a major role in the integration of princely states into the Indian Union.
The designation of Deputy Prime Minister is not a separate constitutional office, but it has been used in different governments.
Patel's role is especially significant because he was part of the first Union government formed after independence.
सरदार वल्लभभाई पटेल स्वतंत्र भारत के प्रथम उपप्रधानमंत्री थे। उन्होंने जवाहरलाल नेहरू के प्रधानमंत्रित्व काल में 1947 से 1950 तक यह पद संभाला। पटेल गृह मंत्री भी थे और उन्होंने देशी रियासतों के भारतीय संघ में एकीकरण में महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाई। उपप्रधानमंत्री का पद अलग संवैधानिक पद नहीं है, लेकिन विभिन्न सरकारों में इस पदनाम का प्रयोग किया गया है। पटेल की भूमिका विशेष रूप से महत्वपूर्ण है क्योंकि वे स्वतंत्रता के बाद गठित प्रथम केंद्रीय सरकार का हिस्सा थे।
