Infrastructure was all over good and technology was uptodate . I was surprised to see that tablets are now used for many purposes for example speeches and representation of data . It was inspiring too. You must visit there . There I understood that all the important decision are made and implied in all over the state . In gujarat people are more involved commercially. And it is a sign of developing nation and unemployment is decreasing. Thank you for your interest ! ☺️

Gujarat vidhan sabha!! Located at gandhinagar and such an very very big place, visitors must need a guide to go from one place to another. That place includes many places like Gujarat vidhansabha, svarnim sankul 1-2, IAS officers, canteen, Ministry of gunarat and many more. Entry method is really hard as of ongoing covid 19 pandemic. Good parking space allocation. Very disciplined security guards with kind gesture. Wheelchair and parking for wheelchair also available. Very neat and clean place In space garden with eye catching art. One of the most powerful places in Gujarat.

The Gujarat Vidhan Sabha, or the legislative assembly of the state of Gujarat, plays a crucial role in shaping the political landscape of this western Indian state. Established in 1960, following the reorganization of states, the Vidhan Sabha has been a key institution in the democratic governance of Gujarat. The assembly comprises elected representatives who are responsible for formulating and passing laws that govern the state. With a history marked by political dynamism and economic growth, the Gujarat Vidhan Sabha reflects the state's commitment to development and progress. Over the years, it has been a forum for debates, discussions, and decision-making that have shaped the policies impacting the lives of millions. Gujarat, under various political leaderships, has consistently focused on economic reforms, infrastructure development, and industrialization. The Vidhan Sabha has been a platform for deliberating on these policies, reflecting the aspirations of the people and addressing the challenges faced by the state. The state's emphasis on sustainable development, innovation, and inclusive growth is echoed in the legislative debates and decisions taken within the assembly. Moreover, the Gujarat Vidhan Sabha reflects the diverse socio-cultural fabric of the state, representing the interests of different communities and regions. It has played a vital role in promoting regional development and addressing the unique challenges faced by various parts of Gujarat. In conclusion, the Gujarat Vidhan Sabha stands as a symbol of democratic governance, political discourse, and development in the state. Its role in shaping Gujarat's trajectory is evident in the policies formulated and decisions made within its chambers, contributing to the overall progress and prosperity of the state.

Gujarat vidhan sabha or Viththalbhai Patel bhavan - A very important place for the administration of Gujarat, India. It is located in sachivalaya campus, Gandhinagar. You can consider this campus as VVVVIP area. Normal person cannot enter the sachivalaya campus. You will find tight security as whole administration of Gujarat government is controlled from here. You will be amazed with the cleanliness and well maintenance of the campus. I wish they govern in such a way that the sachivalaya campus model can be replicated in whole Gujarat in terms of security, public welfare, cleanliness, smooth roads and so on..
