Sardan is a commonly used word referring to the beloved ones as ‘Chief’ in various languages like Hindi, Urdu and Persian. And therefore he was also called Sardar Patel. This name stuck when he was truly heroic during a difficult
famine in 1928 trying to manage and balance everything and was also cooperating with people for negating the unnecessary tax payments. The villagers in Kheda called him Sardar or chief.
