Shiroda and Azgoan
are twin non-urbon villages. There villages have been densly covered
green forest tall palm trees salt planks which appear like white
pearl artiatically palced, the cool breeze blowing through the beaches
while the tall waves always trying to accompany them tries and tries
again and again falls back with a roar and this process the small
ships always enjoying & dancing on the wars II |

Sparkling blue waters,
long stretch of silver sands, cool sea breeze, whispering through
tall cypruss plantations on the beach & salt depots around the village,
Shiroda is a feast for the eyes of the visitors. Shiroda is said
to be prerna bhoomi of eminent novelist V.S. Khandekar. In 1930
Salt Satyagraha took olace in Shiroda on order from Rastrapitha
Mahatma Gandhi. Police arrested 100,s of protestors (Swayamsevaks)
trying to rob salt by breaking the fence but they could’nt stop
swayamsevaks from looting the salt. This conflict continued till
Gandhiji had talks of equality with General Erwin. |
