And I know many people in Karachi who are from Morbi Tankara Memon Jamat, migrated from your city a long ago, even we have a graveyard with the name of Morbi Tankara Qabristan in Karachi, so probably you know the area name Tankara in Morbi, and still there are memons who have Morbi Tankara Memon Community hall in Morbi Gujrat.
