Summary: Complete Independence and unity of India was Sardar Patel's goal and he made all efforts to keep the two major communities of India united for the purpose. He was critical of British Government's communal award and separate electorate to create internal dissensions between the two communities.Sardar Patel considered Jinnah's "Two-Nation-Theory" as absurd. He traced the attitude of Jinnah its recalcitrant nature of being open to no compromise and adhering only to the idea of Pakistan.Sardar Patel justified the responsibility of the Congress to divide the country when he said that "we took these extreme steps after great deliberation. In spite of my previous strong opposition to partition I agreed to it because I felt that in order to keep India united it must be divided now. There should be peace in the country."
