Before starting the march to Dandi, Gandhiji declared that he will not return to the ashram before the independence of the country. It is believed that this is one of the ancient ashram sites of Dadhichi Rishi who had donated his bones for a righteous war. The Sabarmati ashram is sited between a prison and a crematorium, and Gandhi believed that a satyagrahi has invariably to go to either place. Gandhi Ji said, "This is the right place for our activities to carry on the search for truth and develop fearlessness, for on one side are the iron bolts of the foreigners, and on the other the thunderbolts of Mother Nature."

  • Monetary Aspects of Bahmani Copper Coinage in Light of the Akola Hoard

    Monetary Aspects of Bahmani Copper Coinage in Light of the Akola Hoard

    Monetary Aspects of Bahmani Copper Coinage in Light of the Akola Hoard Phillip B. Wagoner and Pankaj Tandon Draft: 9/24/16 **Please do not quote or disseminate without permission of the authors** The Bahmanis of the Deccan produced copper coinage from the very outset of the state’s founding in AH 748/1347 CE, but it was clearly secondary to the silver tankas upon which their monetary system was based. By the first several decades of the fifteenth century, however, as John Deyell has shown, the relative production values of silver and copper coinage had reversed, and there was an enormous expansion in copper output, both in terms of the numbers of coins produced and in terms of the range of their denominations (Fig.1).1 This phenomenon has attracted the attention of several scholars, but fundamental questions yet remain about the copper coinage and how it functioned within the Bahmani monetary system. Given the dearth of contemporary written documents shedding light on these matters, it is understandable that many would simply give up on trying to answer these questions. But to do so would be to ignore the physical, material evidence afforded in abundance by the coinage itself, including such aspects as its metrology and denominational structure, and most importantly, the indications of its usage patterns embodied within the composition and geographic distribution of individual coin hoards. Ultimately, we may wish to know why Bahmani copper coinage production should have undergone such a sudden expansion in the 1420s and 1430s, but in order to realize this goal, we must first address the physical nature of the coinage itself and what it can tell us about how it was used.

    Ecological Investigations of Shahwadi Wetland Nainesh R

    Explorer Research Article [Modi et al. , 4(12): Dec., 2013] CODEN (USA): IJPLCP ISSN: 0976-7126 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHARMACY & LIFE SCIENCES Ecological investigations of Shahwadi Wetland Nainesh R. Modi 1*, Nilesh R. Mulia 1 and Sumesh N. Dudani 2 1, Department of Botany, M. G. Science Institute, Ahmedabad, (Gujarat) - India 2, Deparment of Botany, Yuvaraja’s College, University of Mysore, Mysore - India Abstract The wetlands form important repositories of aquatic biodiversity. The diverse ecoclimatic regimes extant in the country resulted in a variety of wetland systems ranging from high altitude cold desert wetlands to hot and humid wetlands in coastal zones with its diverse flora and fauna. There are many important lakes and wetlands in Ahmedabad including Kankaria lake and Vastrapur Lake. The Nalsarovar wetland and Thol lake in the outskirts of Ahmedabad city are very important spots for migratory birds coming from different parts of the world and hence, attracts large number of tourists. However, many small and big wetlands are also present in and around the city which has not received due attention and hence, have suffered badly in the increased age of industrialization and urbanization. One such wetland is Shahwadi wetland which is situated in the heavily industrialized Narol area of Ahmedabad city. This study was undertaken to understand the ecological richness and importance of this region and highlight its degrading condition. It was found that this wetland harbors a good number of migratory birds and local birds, but is in highly degrading condition due to the negligence of local people residing in the periphery and the industries running nearby.

    The Relations of the Mughal Empire with the Ahmadnagar Kingdom (1526-1636)

    THE RELATIONS OF THE MUGHAL EMPIRE WITH THE AHMADNAGAR KINGDOM (1526-1636) Thesis Submited foe tke *Degcee of Doctor (X Philosophy IN fflSTQRY BY MOHO. SIRAJ ANWAR SUPERVISOR Professor Iqtidar Alam Khan CENTRE OF ADVANCED STUDY DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1994 / f ; : ^ iO.i/1 - 1 3;rf;p ifl«(^ ABSTRACT During the first quarter of the sixteenth century the relations between the power ruling over North India, namely, the Lodi Empire and the Deccan kingdoms were generally at a very low key. But it is, of course, true that the Deccani kingdoms were not indifferent to the situation in the North. The sending of congratulatory letters to Babur by trte rulers of Ahmadnagar, Bijapur and Berar, on his success in 1526, goes to testify their eagerness to win favour with any ruler who appeared to gaining an upper hand in North India. Among them Ahmadnagar seemed to be particularly responsive to the developing political scenario in the North. The short term consideration of the Ahmadnagar Kingdom in cultivating friendly ties with the Mughals from the very beginning of their rule down to the end of Humayun's reign, and also with the Surs during their short lived rule over North India, was possibly that their military pressure on Malwa and Gujarat would render the latter two states less belligerent towards Ahmadnagar. But at the same time it should not be overlooked that from 1535 onwards Humayun appeared to be interested in extending his influence, if not actual rule, over Khandesh and Ahmadnagar which is borne out by his correspondence with Burhan Nizam Shah I as well as his making, while returning to Mandu from Ahmadabad, a detour across Khandesh.

For many years, it has served as a water source and provided almost no formal recreational space for the city. As the city has grown, the Sabarmati river had been abused and neglected and with the increased pollution was posing a major health and environmental hazard to the city. The slums on the riverbank were disastrously flood prone and lack basic infrastructure services. The River became back of the City and inaccessible to the public Ahmedabad and the Sabarmati :1672 Sabarmati and the Growth of Ahmedabad Sabarmati has always been important to Ahmedabad As a source for drinking water As a place for recreation As a place to gather Place for the poor to build their hutments Place for washing and drying clothes Place for holding the traditional Market And yet, Sabarmati was abused and neglected Sabarmati became a place Abuse of the River to dump garbage • Due to increase in urban pressures, carrying capacity of existing sewage system falling short and its diversion into storm water system releasing sewage into the River.

    Communities and Spatial Culture in a Communally Diverse City: Ahmedabad, India

    Communities and spatial culture in a communally diverse city: Ahmedabad, India Shibu Raman 74 Oxford Brookes University, UK Abstract Keywords Modern cities attract people from different walks of life with different cultural Space Syntax, 74.1 Community, Space backgrounds. Many design professionals are unaware of the relationship between structure, culture and space, as well as the potential of space for fostering the culture of distinct Ahmedabad, Walled city communities. It is imperative that modern cities should enable different cultures to coexist, while still helping each community to keep its cultural identity and so avoid [email protected] conflicts and tensions arising from it. It is argued that a culturally sensitive design approach could help in attaining a diverse but cohesive society, thus achieving a socially sustainable urban community. This paper outlines recent research looking at ‘spatial culture’ and the culture of cities. Previous studies of cities show distinct morphological and syntactic differences between distinct cultural settings. This study examines the differences in morphology of different areas of the walled city of Ahmedabad, where different ethnic communities live in distinct localities. This analysis was carried out by using space syntax methodology. Different localities within the walled city were studied, both as they are embedded in the city, and in isolation. This was done in order to find the differences in their organisation of spaces and their relation to their immediate neighbourhoods, as well as to find the relation of spaces to other spaces within the walled area. The investigation showed many similarities in the local areas of Ahmedabad in terms of their syntactic values and the structuring principles of spaces.
