2 Surat, city, southeastern Gujarat state, west-central India. It lies near the mouth of the Tapti River at the Gulf of Khambhat(Cambay). The city is believed to have been founded by a Brahaman named Gopi, who built the Gopi Talav (water reservoir) in 1516 and named the area Surajpur or Suryapur. Surat became the name of the city in It was plundered by Muslims in the 12th and 15th centuries. In 1514 the Portuguese traveler Duarte Barbosa described Surat as a leading port. It was burned by the Portuguese (1512 and 1530) and conquered by the Mughals (1573) and was twice sacked by the Maratha king Shivaji (17th century). Surat thereafter became the emporium of India, exporting cloth and gold. Its major industries were textile manufacture and shipbuilding. The British established their first Indian factory (trading post) at Surat (1612). The city gradually declined throughout the 18th century. The British and Dutch both claimed control, but in 1800 its administration passed to the British. Surat, the city of commerce was an important port that first attracted the Europeans to the riches of India. The East India Company established its first warehouses in Surat in And it was at Surat that Sir Thomas Roe landed when he came as King James' ambassador to the court of Emperor Jahangir. In Mughal times, Surat was the main port from which pilgrims sailed to Mecca. Even today, Surat is a premier industrial city of India. It is a city of riches, of gems and diamonds. Times may have changed but Surat remains and continues to grow. Surat became the most important trade link between India and many other countries and was at the height of prosperity till the rise of Bombay port in the 17th and 18th centuries. Surat was also a flourishing centre for ship building activities. The whole coast of Tapi from Athwalines to Dumas was specially meant for ship builders who were usually Rassis. By the mid-19th century Surat was a stagnant city of 80,000 inhabitants. It prospered again with the opening of India s railways. The ancient art of manufacturing fine muslin was revived, and Surat s cottons, silks, brocades, and objects of gold and silver became famous. The surrounding area is intensively cultivated; chief crops include cotton, millet, pulses, and rice. Surat is famous for its monuments and the centuries old old fort that stands tall in the city. It was built by Muhammad bin Tughlak in the 14th century to guard the city from Bhils attack. Known as Muhammad Kunhi by birth, he was the most cruel and cold-blooded sultan among the Mughal Emperors; but was very concerned about his men and brilliantly made this fort. The fort was invaded twice by the Maratha Emperor, Chhatrapati Shivaji. This exquisite architectural marvel with strong walls and iron bars is a place of worth a visit. The fort is now being used as the Municipal office of the city. In the meanwhile, decades and centuries had rolled by, and the city has emerged as a significant industrial city of India, and had developed its own distinctive cultural flavour and cuisine. A person living in the city of SURAT is called a SURATI and they are proud being called SURATI OR SURATILALA - VIPUL DESAI (desaivm50@yahoo.com)
