The State took its name from the Gujara, the land of the Gujjars. After Gujjaras, Islam Sultanate, Mughals, Marathas, Europeans, and Britishers took over the state. Finally \u201cQuit India Movement\u201d started to get independence from British people in which was led by the famous Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Patel. In the year 1948, after India got Independence, to integrate the entire Gujarati speaking population under one administrative body, a Mahagujarat conference took place and they finally decided to split the states of Gujarat and Maharashtra on May 1, 1960.<\/p>\n
