Direction Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow :

There seems to be a rather general opinion in this country that Sardar Patel was of a harsh and rough temperament. Men call him the 'Iron man of India'. He was, no doubt, an iron man in the sense that one could rely on him for strict and efficient administration. But, as a man, for those who had the good fortune of coming into close contact with him, he was kind and considerate. At times, he even became emotional, where his friends and followers were concerned. However, it goes without saying that the Sardar had great skill in organising affairs. He knew the way of selecting people and putting them in their suitable places. Once he judged a man and found him correct, he trusted him fully and got him to do anything he wanted.
