ITS ALL ABOUT AHMEDABAD MY CITY FOUNDED IN THE YEAR AD 1411,AHMEDABAD TURNED 600YEARS,THIS CITY OF 5 MILLION INHABITANTS HAS SURVIVED AND THRIVED THROUGH THE UPS AND DOWNS OF THE TUMULTUOUS PAST SIX CENTURIES SINCE IT STARTED OFF AS A TINY MILITARY SETTELMENT ON THE SANDY BANKS OF SABARMATI.

THE STORY GOES THAT SULTAN AHMED SHAH WAS TRAVELLING FROM PATAN WITH HIS ARMY IN 1411 WHEN HE WAS A STARNGE SIGHT,HARES WERE CHASING DOGS ALONG THE RIVER SABARMATI,THE COURAGE OF THE HARES FILLED HIM WITH WONDER,THE SULTAN DECIDED TO BUILD AHMEDABAD HERE.HE WAS TOLD TO DO SO BY A SUFI SAINT NAMED SHIAKH AHMED KHATTU ALIAS GUNJ BAKSH, THE SAINT LIVED IN SARKHEJ.

BUT IS WAS NOT EASY TO BUILD CITY,ON THE BANKS OF THE SABARMATI LIVED MANEKNATH BABA ANOTHER SAINT, MANEKBABA SAT WEAVING A MAGIC QUILT.WHENEVER HE UNTIED THE THREADS,THE CITY WALLS FELL DOWN,AHMED SHAH REQUEST MANEKBABA NOT TO MAKE THE WALLS COLLAPSE,THE SAINT HEARD AHMED SHAH BUT SHOWED HIS MAGICAL POWER BY BECOMING SMALL ENOUGH TO ENTER A BOTTLE.AHMED SHAH QUICKLY CLOSED THE BOTTLE AND BURIED IT IN THE GROUND.
