Vasna - Connection Within The Duality

Vasna, one of the significant trading hubs in Ahmedabad, is located on the western bank of the Sabarmati River. The area is intersected by two main roads, Vasna Road and the 132 Feet Ring Road, which divides it into two distinct neighborhoods: Juhapura, recognized as India's largest Muslim Ghetto (Deepal Trivedi, 2022) and the Vasna region. This study illustrates the nuanced transformations within this locale, emphasizing key landmarks such as the APMC market, 132 feet ring road, Metro station, and Market zone through GIS mapping, surveys, and research, the project demonstrates how these landmarks serve as pivotal connectors, bridging gaps and fostering connections within the dualities.
