Naranpura: Transformation of Gamtal

The unprecedented growth of West Ahmedabad has resulted at the expense of the vast agricultural land. In this process, the gamtals lost their identity, space & value as they become dependent on Urban Areas. Their presence seemed to be lost in the city landscape of Ahmedabad. But besides all that, they are having a very large amount of land within the urban area. Gamtal in Naranpura underwent changes in the built environment, low rise to high rise development. And ultimately the density of people is increasing. There are many influences for this growth like personal growth of the family, accommodation for migrating people, providing small industries & other.
