Bardoli, Surat

Bardoli town is the birthplace of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel's “No Tax” Movement of 1918. Later Sardar had also started agitation against the British tax hike from this town; all of these events were actually a forerunner to Sardar's participation in Gandhiji's Namak Satyagraha, the Salt March from Dandi.

The Swaraj Ashram, garden, museum, khadi workshops and also the Aitihasik Ambo, a mango tree under which Gandhiji declared about home-rule for India are the memorabilia of that glorious past that are there in Bardoli.
