Ojas Apartment, Ahmedabad
After spending 45 days in Ahmedabad, I have realised that the beauty of this city lies in its people. Since I have arrived, there are certain etiquettes amongst the people which has really drawn my attention. People don't swear at each other, they are patient, add bhai (Brother) after your first name and many others. Although the wealth and power is in the hands of few businessman and key state figures, the divide amongst the poor and the rich is less evident as compared to Delhi.
Due to their modest and humble nature, Gujaratis never boast about their exuberant wealth unlike Delhiites, who believe in the philosophy of 'if you have it, flaunt it'. You may end of meeting someone and not releasing that he may be a millionaire, whereas a Delhiite with ` 100 in his pocket will behave as if he has ` 1 Lakh with him.
