Welcome to our website. Ahmedabad Inside.

Ahmadabad is the largest city in state of Gujarat (there are 28 states, Gujarat is the westernmost one)and the sixth largest city in India has a population of over 3,7 million people. The city is also sometimes called Karnavati , an older name and as Amdavad in colloquial Gujarati . Ahmedabad is the administrative center of Ahmedabad District , and was the former capital of Gujarat State from 1960 to 1970 , when Gandhinagar replaced it. The city was founded in the 15th century by Sultan Ahmed Shah on the Sabarmati river , and served as capital of the Sultanate of Gujarat. The historic center of Ahmedabad is presently a thriving business district. Ahmedabad is mainly divided in two parts, the old city, and new city. The old city has developed rather haphazardly, and most of the roads are narrow and crowded during business hours. The new city has well-structured, wide roads. A wide variety of shops and businesses exist in the city. In addition to its role as a commercial center, Ahmedabad is also an important industrial center, with chemical and textile industries. Ahmedabad is often described as the Manchester of the East, because of its once-booming textile industry. Ahmedabad is a very beautiful city.

Stop Committing Suicide


Since last many days, I've been reading in news-papers about the students committing suicide because of examinations pressure. Moved by the ever increasing number of suicide cases, I have creating this group with the aiming to pass a message to the students about thinking beyond the education system/examinations.


Don't get frustrated if don’t fare good in any of your examinations. The life that your future holds, and the profession you choose that does not completely depend on what you're pursuing currently in your college/school syllabus. You don't have to completely rely on those results for your life ahead. Although it can be one of the foundation stones but not the end.

Everyone has the potential to do something really good in their life. So just try to find out that and stick to it until you get the real success. Often people opine that certain films inspiring students to commit suicide. But it' can not be entirely true.


It's always up to you what you pick for yourself from the innumerable instances and happenings presented in the movie. So just don't follow what you see on television/movies. Stop Committing Suicide and start thinking beyond examinations and results. This is my sincere request all in general but student community in particular that whatever you are, only you hold the key of your life and believe me life always deserves better.

How city got its name

Englishman Philips Baldeus sketched this cityscape in 1672 AD

The earliest mention of the city as Ashavally, Ashapal or Ashaval finds mention in Muslim scholar Alberuni’s Qitab-ul-Hind. It was a town ruled by tribal King Asha Bhil. In 1074, King Karnadev I of the Solanki dynasty defeated Asha Bhil in battle and established the city of Karnavati.

Karnavati was strategic for Karnadev I for his army campaign in Lat Pradesh, today’s South Gujarat. Karnavati became his army base, from where he fought off attackers from South Gujarat and the Yadavs of Girnar.

Karnadev I had built three temples in Karnavati — of Jayanti Devi, Kochharba Devi and Karneshwar Mahadev. Present-day Kankaria was a water tank named Karnasagar after him. Siddharaj Jaysinh, also known as Gujarat no Naath, was crowned at Karneshwar temple, which was built by his father Karnadev I.

Karnavati enjoyed a pride of place during the Solanki rule, till the Solanki kingdom fell to Muslim Sultanate. The last of of the Solanki dynasty, Karnadev Vaghela, better known as Ra Karan Ghelo, was defeated by Allaudin Khilji, marking the beginning of Muslim rule in Gujarat.

Zafar Shah, viceroy of Delhi, was the one who founded Gujarat Sultanate. He assumed the title of Muzaffar Shah and became the emperor of Gujarat, making Patan its capital.

During this period, Karnavati went into oblivion. In 1411, Zafar Shah’s successor Ahmed Shah founded the city of Ahmedabad, where Karnavati was situated.

According to legend, when Ahmed Shah first came to the city, the sight of a rabbit taking on a hound remained etched in his memory and he decided to set up base here and named the city his capital.

Ahmedabad remained capital of Gujarat for around 162 years till the Gujarat Sultanate stopped being an independent sultanate. In 1572, Mughal emperor Akbar captured the city and ended the rule of the Sultanate.
