    All baseless exaggerated statistics 
    Check planning commission website of central government for actual number and where gujarat stands in actually ranking. Not a single number in abouve post is justifiable.. Gujarat share in FDI is just 5% where as Maharashtra and NCR have 30,25% followed by TAMILNADU. Per capita income of GUJRAT is 8th in country same applies to export,industries,education and health ranking. Other states are much progress than gujarat .only thing they dont do marketing like Gujarat does

    Mukesh Ambani and Anil Ambani are not real gujaratis. They are actually from Orissa. Ambani family came to gujarat from orissa 4 generations back.

    Of course everybody is proud to be of the heritage they are born into. The question is what if we all had a choice to choose what religion or nationality was to be associated with us, would it still be the same? Abstract concept but makes me ponder.
