During his childhood, there were many incidents that made him earn the reputation of a strong man. Once he developed a boil in his armpit and during those days in his village, the people used to go to a man who can treat this. This man used to heat an iron rod and put in the boil area and that is how he used to treat boil. Nevertheless, in the case of Patel he was little reluctant as he was very young. But the young Patel asked him to do it fast as the rod will become cold if they delay. Then he did not wait for him to do that lashing and he did it by himself. That was when young Patel stunned everyone in the village. He was tough and he was hard working. He borrowed books from lawyers and within a time limit of two years he completed his studies. He was physically very strong from his tender gaze. According to many people he used to fast twice a month and those two days long fast that included refraining from food and water. His strong character was seen in those days by many people. His mental strength came when he was in England and he finished his studies in just a few years. Everyone was amazed to see a guy topping every exam who didn’t even have any formal education. Patel was a strong believer of vegetarianism. That is why preached his whole life.
This was the tale, a heroic tale that made the soldier the iron man of Indian politics. His mental abilities were far ahead than anyone else in those days and his physical strength was legendary. That is why Vallabhbhai Patel is known as the Iron Man of India or the steel man of India. There are many other events have made him "Lokhandi Purush" means Iron man of India
