Gujarat Day 2023: Gujarat Day, commonly known as Gujarat Sthapana Divas, is celebrated on 1st May every year. Under the Bombay Reorganization Act, Bombay state was divided into two states today in 1960. One is Gujarat for Gujarati speakers and the other is Maharashtra for Marathi speakers. Gujarat thus became a new state on this day.

History of Gujarat
Gujarat, the land of legends, is a state in the northwest of India. ‘Gujara’, Gujjars’ homeland, is the place named Fatherland. They ruled the region during the 700s and 800s. Gujarat has long been known all over the world. Indus Valley Civilization and Stone Age settlements along the Sabarmati and Mahi rivers also date to the same time, and Harappa sites have also been discovered at Lothal, Rampur, Amri and elsewhere in the state.
It is bordered by Pakistan and Rajasthan to the northeast, Madhya Pradesh to the east, Maharashtra to the south and the Union Territory of Diu, Daman, Dadra and Nagar Haveli to the northeast. The country is bordered by the Arabian Sea to the west and southwest.
Before India gained independence, the area of what is now Gujarat was divided into British and princely territories. Gujarat joins Bombay’s largest bilingual state after a reorganization of states, consisting of the former British, the Federation of Saurashtra and the Union Territory of Kachchh. On 1 May 1960, the present state of Gujarat was established. It is located on the west coast of India.
