Gujarat: History
It is believed that Lord Krishna left Mathura and settled on the western coast of Saurashtra, which later came to be known as Dwarka, the gateway. The state later saw several kingdoms including Mauryas, Guptas, Pratiharas and others. Gujarat witnessed progress and prosperity during the reign of Chalukyas or Solankis. Gujarat also faced difficult times under Muslim, Maratha and British rule. Before Independence, the present territory of Gujarat was used in two parts, namely the British and Princely territories. With the reorganization of the States, the Union of States of Saurashtra and the Union Territory of Kachchh along with the erstwhile British, Gujarat became part of the larger bilingual state of Bombay. The present state of Gujarat was founded on May 1, 1960. It is located on the western coast of India.
State Reorganization Act of 1956
Most of the states were reorganized along linguistic lines under the States Reorganization Act, 1956. This act also consolidated the Gujarati and Marathi speaking areas, leading to unrest in both regions. A local political movement called the Mahagujarat movement demanded a separate state for the Gujarati-speaking people of the bilingual Bombay state of India. And finally, the movement was successful and the states of Gujarat and Maharashtra were formed.
A new Bombay State was formed on 1 November 1956 with the enactment of the States Reorganization Act, 1956, comprising the Marathi speaking areas of the erstwhile Bombay State, the Vidarbha region of the erstwhile State of Madhya Pradesh , the Marathwada region of the erstwhile state of Hyderabad and the erstwhile states of Saurashtra and Kutch. Subsequently, on May 1, 1960, with the enactment of the Bombay Reorganization Act, the erstwhile states of Kutch and Saurashtra were withdrawn from the state of Bombay to form the new state of Gujarat and the state of Bombay was renamed as Maharashtra.
About the Mahagujarat movement
In 1948, after Independence, to integrate the entire Gujarati speaking population under a single administrative body, a Mahagujarat conference was held and on May 1, 1960, the state of Bombay was divided into the states of Gujarat and Maharashtra. . The ‘Mahagujarat’ refers to the entire Gujarati-speaking area, including Gujarat, Saurashtra and Kutchh.
