Districts of Gujarat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Indian state of Gujarat was created in 1960 out of the 17 northern districts of former Bombay State: Ahmedabad, Amreli, Banaskantha, Bharuch, Bhavnagar, Dang, Jamnagar, Junagadh, Kheda, Kachchh, Mehsana, Panchmahal, Rajkot, Sabarkantha, Surat, Surendranagar, and Vadodara.

In 1964 Gandhinagar District was formed from parts of Ahmedabad and Mahesana, and in 1966 Valsad District was split from Surat. On October 2, 1997 Anand District was split from Kheda, Dahod District was split from Panchmahal, Narmada District was split from Bharuch, Navsari District was split from Valsad, and Porbandar District was split from Junagadh. In 2000 Patan District was formed from parts of Banaskantha and Mahesana.
