Gujarat is considered the world’s largest migration
Gandhinagar, 01 March 2023
In 150 years, it is estimated that 2 crore Gujarati people from Saurashtra, Lat, Gujarat, Charotar, Kutch region have gone to the country and abroad. However, if the people who migrated from Gujarat in the last 1000 years are counted in this, then this number can increase even more.
2.5 million people of Saurashtra origin live in the state of Tamil Nadu. Keeping the identity of old Saurashtra as well as the tradition and heritage of Saurashtra intact. It is declared by the Hindu Government of Gujarat. But the census figures prove this claim of Modi to be false. Because the number of Gujarati language speakers in Tamil Nadu is not 25 lakhs but 2.75 lakhs. Thus the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bhupendra Patel of Gujarat BJP is spreading the illusion that 25 lakh Gujaratis live in Tamil Nadu.
