"Gujarat separated from Maharashtra in 1960. Some documents related to Gujarat's revenue department could not be brought back and without the documents, the department was facing difficulties," Patel said while inaugurating 'Krushi Mahotsav' in Morbi, about 75 kms from here.
But, now the state government wants to bring the documents back, in order to make easy the functioning of the revenue department, she said.
This was Anandiben's first public gathering after becoming the chief minister of Gujarat.
Patel also expressed hope that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would soon allow the state to install gates at Sardar Sarovar Narmada dam.
She expressed hope that after installation of the gates, water problem of Saurashtra and Kutch would be solved.
