Brief About Jamnagar District Jamnagar is a city in the western Indian state
of Gujarat, and serves as the capital of the Jamnagar district.
Its population in 1991 was roughly 326,000 people. The city was
built up substantially by Maharaja Kumar Shri Ranjitsinhji in
the 1920s, when the district was known as Nawangar. The district
lies just to the south of the Gulf of Kutch. Most residents of
Jamnagar are Gujarati and speak the Gujarati language. A small
percentage speak the Kachchi language, which is written in the
Gujarati script but is not mutually intelligible with Gujarati.
Jamnagar has recently shot to prominence as Reliance Industries
has established the world's largest refinery there.
The only marine sanctuary of India is near Jamnagar - on the coral
reef island of Pirotan. Jamnagar is well-known for its four marble
Jain temples: Vardhman Shah's Temple, Raisi Shah's Temple, Sheth's
Temple, and Vasupujya Swami's Temple. All were built between 1574
and 1622.
