Ahmedabad makes it to the Forbes list of World’s fastest growing cities!!


Three cheers for Ahmedabad!

With its robust infrastructure and strong fundamentals, Gujarat is growing at a higher pace than other Indian states. Its urban centers are now putting up infrastructure at par with the most developed regions of the world- be it the Bus Rapid Transport System (BRTS) that won the international award or the flyovers or the reduction in pollution or the first ever tethered balloon launched here- Ahmedabad is emerging as a fast developing city. That is how it has found place in the Forbes list of World’s fastest growing city.

As the leader who led the state to this feat, the Chief Minister of Gujarat, Narendra Modi puts it: “So far, Gujaratis have made their second home across the world, now we invite the world to Gujarat.”

With many more upcoming projects like METRO, River front development, solid waste management and the proposed Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor, Ahmedabad is poised to grow at a much faster pace than ever and become a cynosure of many eyes.
