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.

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.

PART- II GUJARAT Gujrat was one of the richest province under the Delhi Sultanate on accounts of its handicrafts, fertile lands, and flourishing seaports. Allaudin Khilji was the first sultan to annex it to the Delhi Sultanate. And since then it remained under the Turkish government under the Delhi Sultanate. The rich province of Gujarat occupied a prominent place among the provincial kingdoms that arose on the ruins of the Delhi Sultanate. Zafar Khan was appointed the Governor of Gujarat by Firoz Shah Tughlaq in 1391 CE. And from the beginning exercised independent power. After Timur’s invasion, in 1407 CE Zafar Khan proclaimed himself an independent ruler and took the title Muzaffar Shah. He founded the Muzaffarid dynasty. Muzaffar Shah started a long drawn struggle with Malwa. He defeated and captured Hushang Shah of Malwa and occupies his kingdom temporarily. Muzaffar Shah was succeeded by his grandson Ahmad Shah in 1411 CE.

He fought against the sultans of Malwa and Khandesh. He for the first time imposed jizyah in Gujarat. He appointed Hindu ministers to important administrative positions, for example, his two ministers Manik Chand and Motichand both were Hindus. Ahmad Shah founded the city of Ahmedabad and made it his capital in 1413 CE.
