Virpur (Kheda)

Virpur (Also known as Birpur ) is a village located Mahisagar district in the Indian state of Gujarat, 40 kilometres (25 mi) from Godhra Junction.

The village is thought to be around 400 years old.

The Mahisagar river flows some 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from the village and this, too, has religious symbolism. It was once a site of pilgrimage for yatris who came to pay homage to a goddess.

There are several schools in the village and the presence of students studying technical and engineering subjects has attracted companies to offer on-campus jobs.
