Item description
As we take the road towards Dholera, a group of farmers welcome us with a wave of their hands. The excitement is clearly visible in their eyes. And why should they not be? If all goes according to the plans of the Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (DMICC), the villagers would soon be seen travelling in new-age trams for intra-city commutes. So are they ready for the ride? "It would be an exhilarating experience," says Maganbhai Sonaria, a tea vendor. The tiny village with a population of 4,500, mostly farmers who grow wheat, jowar and cotton, is prospering and looking forward to a sea-change. Dholera, which is situated in Ahmedabad district in the Gulf of Khambhat, is in proximity to road transport infrastructure and sea-port facilities. And what's more, the government has proposed to build an international airport near Fedara, 30 km from Dholera.
