Viramgam is a municipality, town and former Rajput princely state, in Ahmedabad district in the Indian state of Gujarat.. Viramgam is a municipality town and former Rajput princely state, in Ahmedabad district in the Indian state of Gujarat. Around 1090, Minaldevi, the mother of Jayasimha Siddharaja of Chaulukya dynasty who ruled from Anhilwad Patan, commissioned the Mansar lake. Siddhraj added several shrines and temples later. Circa 1484, Viramgam state was founded. Under the strong Mandal chief, Viramgam did not become part of the Muslim Gujarat Sultanate till 1530. Commanding the entrance to Kathiawar the Mughalgovernors chose it as the headquarters of the Jhalavad prant (district), and in the disturbances of the eighteenth century it was the scene of several struggles. Fortified by its Desai Shri (native Kunbiruler) about 1730, it continued under a Muslim governor, till in 1735 the Desai Bhavsingh called in theMarathas who, dislodging the Muslim governor, held the town till 1740. In that year Bhavsingh, hoping to make himself independent, drove out the Marathas. But after four months they returned in strength, and Bhavsingh, unable to cope with them, on promise of the estate of Patdi, gave up Viramgam to become Desai Shri of Patdi State. Maratha ruled Virangam until it was handed over to British. Old town of Viramgam is surrounded by a towerflanked brick and stone wall, rectangular in shape, and about 21 miles round. In the wall are five gates, on the north the Golwadi gate leading to Patan; on the north-east the Bharwadi gate leading to the railway station ; on the east the Raipuri or Rayyapur gate leading to Ahmedabad; on the south-west the Gangasar gate, and on the west the Mansar or Munsar gate. There are also two unopened gatewayson the north-west and north-east, and in the south face is a window through which water is drawn from the Gangasar lake. It was possibly built by Viramdev Desai around 1730. The town is surrounded by three reservoirs, the Gangasar lake on the south-east and south, lying outside of the wall except a small portion known as the Gusaria lake; in the south-west beyond the Gangasar gate the Dhunia lake; and in the west the Mansar lake. Viramgam used to be the point of intersection of BB & CI Railway and the Saurashtra Railway Viramgam is at the intersection of four railway lines Ahmedabad-Viramgam; Viramgam- Surendranagar; Viramgam-Mehsana; and Viramgam-Dhrangdhra-Samakhyali lines. It is at the intersection of the routes splitting towards Kachchh and Saurashtra while travelling from Ahmedabad. There is a crude oil storage tank depot at Viramgam on Salya-Mathura oli pipeline of Indian Oil Corporation. -: Amenities : - Attractive entrance / title clear / loan paper available / common club house / garden / children’s play area / compound wall / 24 hour water supply Making Dreams For You Since 1960 -: Office Address : - -: Contact Us : - Mf – 114, Sanghavi Tower, Phone – 0216 2783051 Nr.

As a result of Federal financial integration with effect from 1.4.1950, Railway system came under the control of Government of India and Western Railway came into existence on 05.11.1951. Originally, Railway system of entire Saurashtra was under Gondal Region with three districts, having their headquarters at Jamnagar, Junagadh and Bhavnagar. Consequent upon the divisionalisation, two divisions were formed on 1.8.1956 with Rajkot and Bhavnagar as their headquarters. Rajkot-Jamnagar section was opened to traffic in 1897, Surendranagar - Rajkot section in 1905 and Jamnagar - Khambhaliya - Gorinja-Okha in 1922.

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.

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.
