[edit] What is the year the city was founded?

I am getting conflicting information on the founding year of the Bhavnagar city. http://www.bhavnagar.com/history.asp and http://www.4dw.net/royalark/India/bhavnag3.htm mentions the year to be 1723 AD, but the Bhavnagar collectorate website (http://collectorbhavnagar.gujarat.gov.in/ -> Information -> History) mentions it as 1743 AD. Can somebody confirm what is the correct year? -- Square 22:55, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

1723 AD is correct. Article is corrected now.

[edit] Famous educational institutes

Guys, I am tired of removing links to all and sundry 'educational institudes' from the famous list? All schools are and need not be famous. I am removing added entries again. -- Square 14:09, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

And I see it again. Cleaning up now. Square 18:44, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Information about Virendrai C Mehta

This para about Shri Virendrai C Mehta should go to its own page whenever possible. I am removing it from here for now.

Today a road bearing his name stands as V C Mehta Marg near Ghogha Circle. He has authored several publications such as Griha Vidhan, Shilpa Samrudhi, Kala Kaushalya and Gram Vidhan . He also planned the town of Gondal in Gujarat and City of Nagpur in Maharashtra. He was affiliated with the Government of Gujarat and was the member of the Housing Board.
