Gujarat and especially south Gujarat was Powerhouse of the Freedom movement of India. At the Outshoot of Dandi March in 1930 by Mahatma Gandhi inspired number of social workers of Gandevi Taluka to take care of villages and local economy. During 5th Decade of 20th Century the Indian freedom movement leaders have felt that the freedom is very nearby so the leaders started to draw a roadmap for developed independent India.
Leaders know that the true India is living in the villages and ignoring the villagers there is no development is possible. So they concentrate at villages of India. Experiencing that the villagers are suffered with unethical practices of private traders and fast deterioration in the Social, Economical and moral condition of the people they have inspired and motivate the freedom fighters to form cooperative societies to fight against the private traders. 27 freedom fighters from our area with leadership of Late Shree Durlabhjikaka (Who was Deputy Collector in British Government and resigned his post and joined the movement) form our cooperative society namely Amalsad Vibhag Vividh Karyakari Sahakari Mandali Ltd. Amalsad in 1941 and registerd under section 10 of Bombay cooperative Act VII of 1925. At the time of formation of society there was scarcity of household goods, like grains, clothes, edible oil etc. and it distributed through the fair price shops under control act. The licensee distribution system was full of corruption, to get rid of it cooperative movement came forward and took the responsibility to distribute the control commodities. In In the beginning of this society though there were twenty villages in its area, only Kachholi village was chosen to start a shop to distribute the controlled items from government and looking the successes in 1944 the society started this activity in the all villages. Since then Society has never look back and has always added to its activities to suit the needs of the members. Today the society is providing all needs of our members.
