Sultan Mahmud Begada built the Bag-E-Firdosh (Garden of Paradise) in the 15th century near Vastral, which corresponds to the modern-day Amraiwadi area in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

This historical garden was renowned for its vast expanse and its plantation of nearly 9 lakh (900,000) trees, reflecting the Sultan’s dedication to creating a paradise-like environment.

The textile mill housing was referred to as chawls, which are single room dwelling units laid in a row and provided with standard water and sanitation facilities.

Workers from unorganized manufacturing units began to live in squatter communities or informally partitioned private property that fell under various reservations of the city's Development Plan.

Because of the demand from the industrial working class, who often preferred a house close to their place of employment, such settlements grew on a significant scale in this section.

This metro station consists of the main Amraiwadi Post Office along with the National Handloom Corporation located on Lal Bahadur Shastri Road.
