This is the region of Gujarat where birds like cuckoos and peacocks sing sweet melodies, where graceful Paniharis fetch water, and where happy men and women live like pairs of Sarus cranes (who never separate). Narmad's Gujarat was socially backward, making life difficult. During Gandhiji's time, it was under British rule, making that period of subjugation hard to endure. However, today that situation has been eliminated, making its essence and songs unforgettable. There is so much love for Gujarat that even its challenges are acceptable. This Gujarat truly stands at the forefront.
In simple words: In Gujarat, cuckoos and peacocks sing, and Paniharis get water. People live happily, like Sarus crane pairs. Narmad's Gujarat was tough due to social issues.

Gujarat's charm and songs are unforgettable, and even its problems are accepted because of the great love for this leading state.
