City is well planned beutiful city neglected by present rulers particularly Modi Government. City is very good education & medical hub. People are literate & co-operative. Very safe city for ladies & they can move any time without any fear. Dring Chimanbhai regime as CM, this city had tremendous growth & called Indusrial Capital of Gujarat. Now indusrial growth picking up at its own. This city Garba is world acclaimed & many foreign tourists come to watch & participate Garba.
