the patel name is short for patlikh - old Hindu tax collector for the ruler. Patlikh kept records of crops. Being able developers from generations dating back to ramayan era,

this clan was known for their unsurpassed land development. They descended from Punjab after the Muslim persecution. Pat in sanskrit means land. The modern Gujarat

is developed because of the Patels. Gujarat was barren land until the Patel clans arrived and developed to it's present day glory. India also owes immeasureable

gratitude to leaders like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Veer Vithalbhai Patel.
