HISTORY IN BRIEF……….

Archaeological evidence suggests that the area around Ahmedabad has been inhabited since the 11th century, when it was known as Ashapalli . At that time, Karandev I , the Solanki ruler of Anhilwara (modern Patan ), waged a successful war against the Bhil king of Ashaval. Soon after the victory, he established a city called Karnavati on the banks of the Sabarmati at the site of modern Ahmedabad.
