This page tells you how each village around Dholera could reach the outside world in 2009, and ranks them by how many of those channels they had. It matters because this is the clearest before picture we have of a place that is now being marketed on its fibre network.

The short version

Hebatpur leads with 4 of the 4 communication facilities that separate these villages. Mobile coverage was already recorded in every one of the 72 by 2009, so it ranks nothing. Landlines and public call offices are what actually separate them.

What this ranking is

This is the last time anybody counted these villages one by one and published the answer. The Census of India sent enumerators to every village in the country in 2011 and asked the same questions everywhere, which is what makes the answers comparable. The amenity questions were asked in 2009. That is old, and we say so on every figure, but it is the only complete, uniform and free record of what was on the ground before the industrial city arrived. If you want to understand what Dholera SIR was built on top of, this is the baseline.

None of this describes 2026. Roads have been built, land has changed hands and the expressway has opened since the surveyors came. Read it as the starting line, not the current score.

Which villages are in it. The 69 villages of Dhandhuka taluka, sub-district code 03787, plus the three Barwala taluka villages that appear on the Dholera development authority's own 22 village boundary map. Seventy two villages in all. Census 2011 has no Dholera taluka because Dholera taluka was only created in 2015, so the villages sit under the taluka names the Census used at the time.

What separates these villages, and what does not

Mobile coverage had already reached every village in this set by 2009, well before the industrial city existed. What had not reached them was fixed infrastructure: landlines, internet centres and couriers were patchy. That is the pattern across rural India and it is worth remembering when a plan promises a fibre city.

  • Internet cafe or common service centre: recorded in 70 of the 72 villages.
  • Landline telephone: recorded in 64 of the 72 villages.
  • Public call office: recorded in 16 of the 72 villages.
  • Private courier: recorded in 2 of the 72 villages.

Recorded in every one of the 72 villages, so it ranks nothing. Mobile coverage. A column where every village answers the same way carries no ranking signal, so we print it as a sentence rather than dress it up as a league table.

How to use this without being misled

Read this as the baseline the Dholera plan is measured against. The industrial area is being built with underground fibre ducts laid before the buildings, which is a genuine change. This page tells you what the surrounding villages had before any of that, so you can see the size of the gap for yourself.
