First Office of Halai Memon Moti Jamat, Ahmedabad
Our History
Our Journey
In 1945, several Memon families from various parts of Gujarat relocated to Ahmedabad for business purposes. Approximately 50 families settled in the areas of Mirzapur, Shahpur, and Jamalpur, maintaining close connections with one another.
In 1964, the Jamat’s constitution was crafted by Janaab Wali Mohammed Bhai Isani Sahab, formalizing the structure and objectives of the organization.
Establishment
In 1952, with the support of other community members, Janab Ali Mohammad Bhai Ami Bhai initiated the establishment of ‘Halai Memon Moti Jamat’ in Ahmedabad. The primary goal of this organization was to foster unity within the community and provide assistance to its needy members. Over time, the number of families grew from 50 to 75, and then to 100. Ali Mohammad Bhai Ami Bhai served as the first president of Halai Memon Moti Jamat until 1964.
