AIESEC Baroda
with
Baroda(Vadodara) has a rich historical background. It is situated on the banks of the river
Vishwamitri. The city was once called Chandravati, after its ruler king Chandan, then Viravati, the
abode of the brave, and then Vadpatra because of its abundance of Banyan trees on the banks
of the Vishwamitri. From Vadodara the Britishers named it as Baroda. Baroda is on the major rail
and road arteries joining Mumbai with Delhi and Mumbai with Ahmedabad. Because of this
Baroda is known as a “Gateway to the Golden Corridor”. National highway no.8 passes through
the city. It also has an airport which is very well connected with the other major airports of India.
Public transport vehicles within the city include rickshaws(tuk-tuk), taxis and buses. Of course,
people make use of their own vehicles- cars, scooters, bikes and bicycles.
ABOUT BARODA
Vadodara is also known as ‘Sanskari Nagari’, i.e. Cultured City. Vadodara is one of India’s most
cosmopolitan cities. Thanks to the vision and broadmindedness of the Gaekwads, the
subsequent industrialization, the proliferation of academic activities and a strategically
important geographical location, Baroda has welcomed a wide variety of people from all over
India and also from all over the world. In all of this, the sprawling and cosmopolitan MS
University campus and the large number of local, national and foreign industries act as a
catalyzing and unifying force.
The great museums on the palace grounds such as the Maharaja Fateh Singh Museum and art
gallery are unique and carry artifacts from around the nation and the world. There are Gujarati
film studios in the city as well as a large number of large old-style movie theatres in addition to
the newer multiplexes that have sprung up in the past few years.

THE I S SUE : F EMALE I N FANT I C I DE& FOE T I C I D E
Female foeticide and abortion of a female child are crimes that begin at and affect the very roots
of a culture. Girls are the equal half of our society,yet not treated so. Often in India, a female child
is killed before it is born. 'Doodh Peeti' is a cruel tradition to drown a newborn girl child in milk,
simply for being a girl. These inequalities against gender arise mainly due to superstitions and
the lack of awareness. AIESEC Baroda and BIMS have come together to work on this sensitive
issue to try and eradicate the negative attitude against girls by working on the grassroot level
and by changing the mindset of the people.
