29 August,2021 Sunday 3 GUJ AIR SQN NCC RAJKOT GROUP, GUJRAT DTE. Girnar Parvat Standing tall at 3672 feet, Girnar is an ancient hill in Junagadh, Gujarat. This centuries old hill is covered with 866 Jain and Hindu temples that are spread over the summits. One will have to climb 9999 steps to reach the final summit. Trek to Girnar Hill starts from Girnar Taleti. Girnar Mount ગરનાર પવત Highest point Elevation 1,069 m (3,507 ft) Listing List of Indian states and . territories by highest point Coordinates 21°29′41″N 70°30′20″E Girnar Ropeway Girnar ropeway is a ropeway on Mount Girnar which is Asia's longest ropeway. First proposed in 1983, the construction started only in September 2018 due to government approval delays and litigation. The construction and operation is managed by Usha Breco Limited. The project was inaugurated on 24 October 2020 by now Prime Minister Narendra Modi.[9] It connects Girnar taleti to Jain goddesses Ambika temple within 10 minutes of ropeway ride. The ropeway is 2,320 metres (7,600 ft) long, takes passengers 850 metres (2,800 ft) above the hill to the Ambika temple. Girnar is one of the most important and holy pilgrimage centres of both Hindus and Jains. Girnar is a range of mountains usually known as the Girnar Hills. Girnar has been mentioned in the Vedas and also in the scriptures from the Indus Valley Civilization proving that it has always been respected as a sacred place. Start early in the morning, carry plenty of water, and stop for rest often during the hot hours of the day, and your climb of Mt. Girnar will be fruitful. We were at Taleti around 12:30 am. We did not have any torch at that time and it was risky to climb alone in night. The construction and operation is managed by Usha Breco Limited. The project was inaugurated on 24 October 2020 by now Prime Minister Narendra Modi. It connects Girnar taleti to Jain goddesses Ambika temple within 10 minutes of ropeway ride. Gir Range, low mountain range in western Gujarat state, west-central India, on the southern Kathiawar Peninsula. ... From it to the north runs a low, narrow, dissected range rising to Gorakhnath (3,665 feet [1,117 metres] high; believed to be an extinct volcano) in the broad mass of the Girnar Hills. Jai Hind!

The Shaping of Modern Gujarat
A probing took beyond Hindutva to get to the heart of Gujarat THE SHAPING OF MODERN Many aspects of mortem Gujarati society and polity appear pulling. A society which for centuries absorbed diverse people today appears insular and patochiai, and while it is one of the most prosperous slates in India, a fifth of its population lives below the poverty line. J Drawing on academic and scholarly sources, autobiographies, G U ARAT letters, literature and folksongs, Achyut Yagnik and Such Lira Strath attempt to Understand and explain these paradoxes, t hey trace the 2 a 6 :E e o n d i n a U t V a n y history of Gujarat from the time of the Indus Valley civilization, when Gujarati society came to be a synthesis of diverse peoples and cultures, to the state's encounters with the Turks, Marathas and the Portuguese t which sowed the seeds ol communal disharmony. Taking a closer look at the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the authors explore the political tensions, social dynamics and economic forces thal contributed to making the state what it is today, the impact of the British policies; the process of industrialization and urbanization^ and the rise of the middle class; the emergence of the idea of '5wadeshi“; the coming £ G and hr and his attempts to transform society and politics by bringing together diverse Gujarati cultural sources; and the series of communal riots that rocked Gujarat even as the state was consumed by nationalist fervour. With Independence and statehood, the government encouraged a new model of development, which marginalized Dai its, Adivasis and minorities even further.

Science Institute, Navrangpura, Ahmedabad 380009 * Corresponding Author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The Talala region of Saurashtra in Western India has been rocked by three moderate seismic events of Mw 4.8 (2007), Mw 5.0 (2007) and Mw 5.1 (2011). Despite several seismological observation, which hint at monsoon, triggered earthquake activity responsible for swarm type activity, the moderate events may have another causal mechanism. There is limited data available pertaining to geomorphic / surface expression of faults in the region, which is crucial for understanding the crustal deformation going on in this seismically active intraplate region. In present paper, we report the geomorphic evidences of active left-lateral strike- slip movement with presence of oblique slip component along a fault (Girnar Fault). The zone of the fault extends for about 60 km in length in NE-SW direction, nevertheless the seismological observations suggests seismicity is only restricted to a length of 40 km. The drainage network of Hiren and Shetrunji rivers show anomalous pattern inform of offset channel, deflected streams and straight channels, which are characteristic signatures of strike-slip faulting, apart from aligned drainages and linear valleys. Unpaired terraces presence in the study area indicates presence of dip slip component along the fault.
