In such context in Gujarat Dholera was a forgotten port city once bigger than Bombay or today’s Mumbai was having maximum government land with farmers land also given by government for farming after independence gradually over years moreover this land was barren because of salinity creating challenges in farming activities and only monsoon was suitable for farming with limited number of crops possible. This was also located in the midst of Gujarat south of Ahmedabad, North of Bhavnagar and West of Vadodara almost in the vicinity of 100 kilometers of this major cities of Gujarat.
