  3. ABOUT MY VILLAGE : • Limbdi is a city and a municipality in Surendranagar district in the Indianstate of Gujarat. • Limbdi was a princely state- entitled to a hereditary salute of 9-guns during and before the British empire, ruled by the Jhala dynasty. After India's independence from British colonial rule in 1947, Limbdi was integrated into the nation with other princely states. It has a current population of about 70,000 people who are employed in diverse professions from agriculture to small businesses. • Limbdi has a proud place in women's education. It is home to Lady Wellingdon Girls School, now Municipal school number 3. This school was established in Limbdi on 1 March 1859 when India had hardly any girls schools even in urban areas. Initially "girls only", it is now a co-educational school.

  4. HISTORY OF LIMBDI Limbdi was once a princely state. During the time span from 1768 to 1948, many dictators had taken charge of Limbdi starting from Harisinh, Bhojraj, Harbham, Fatesinh, Jashwantsinh, Dotalsinh, Digvijaysinh and the last Chhatrasalsinh. During the reign of king Jaswantsinh, Swami Vivekananda had stayed in the city Limbdi during his visit of Saurashtra. King Jaswantsinh had become the friend of Swami Vivekananda. They had stayed together in Mahabaleshwar during 4-May-1892 to 28-May-1892. Spiritual discussion held between them has been well depicted in the Daily Diary of king Jaswantsinh. It is believed that king Jaswantsinh had inspired & requested Swami Vivekananda to participate in the World Religion Conference.
