× My hometown is Surat which is located in the western state of Gujarat, India.
✓ My hometown is Surat, which is located in the western state of Gujarat, India.
Missing comma before the non-restrictive clause 'which is located...' makes the sentence punctuation-grammatically incorrect. Add a comma to separate the main clause and the non-restrictive relative clause. Also no article issue in content but punctuation correction improves clarity.
× It is renowned for its di diamond and textile industries, especially for cutting lab grown diamonds and uh for a beautiful silk sarees.
✓ It is renowned for its diamond and textile industries, especially for cutting lab-grown diamonds and for beautiful silk sarees.
Errors: 'di diamond' is a typo and should be 'diamond' (no article needed when speaking about industries generally). 'lab grown' should be hyphenated as 'lab-grown' when used as a compound adjective. 'a beautiful silk sarees' mixes singular article with plural noun; use 'beautiful silk sarees' (no 'a') or 'a beautiful silk saree' (singular). Remove filler 'uh' in formal answers.
× The city is modern, rapidly developing and offers of good quality of life.
✓ The city is modern, rapidly developing and offers a good quality of life.
Incorrect preposition 'of' after 'offers'. The correct collocation is 'offers a good quality of life.' Add the article 'a' before 'good quality.'
× I like the cleanliness and development of Surat.
✓ I like the cleanliness and the development of Surat.
Style: adding 'the' before 'development' makes the noun more specific and parallel to 'the cleanliness.' Not strictly required but improves parallel structure and clarity.
× The city is excellent infrastructure and people are generally supportive and friendly.
✓ The city has excellent infrastructure, and people are generally supportive and friendly.
The original lacks a verb to link 'city' and 'infrastructure.' Use 'has' to indicate possession. Add a comma before the conjunction 'and' joining two independent clauses.
× I have lived here since I was born.
✓ I have lived here since I was born.
This sentence is correct: present perfect 'have lived' with 'since' is appropriate to indicate action continuing from birth to present. No change needed.
× I like it because it's close to my family and plenty of parks nearby.
✓ I like it because it's close to my family and there are plenty of parks nearby.
Missing verb and subject in second clause. Add 'there are' to form a complete clause: 'there are plenty of parks nearby.'
× Yes, definitely My hometown is a good place for young people as there is a parks, cafes and uh schools nearby.
✓ Yes, definitely. My hometown is a good place for young people, as there are parks, cafes and schools nearby.
Missing period after 'definitely' and capitalization issue. 'There is' should be 'there are' to agree with plural nouns. Remove filler 'uh' and do not use 'a' before a plural list. Use comma before 'as' for clarity.
× It will help the children or the younger people to to make friends and socialize with each other, get together with with I mean the parties.
✓ It will help children and young people to make friends and socialize with each other, and to get together for parties.
Problems: double 'to to' and double 'with with' are repetitions/typos. 'The children or the younger people' awkward — use 'children and young people.' 'Get together with the parties' is incorrect; use 'get together for parties.' Remove filler 'I mean.' Ensure parallel infinitive forms: 'to make... and to get...'. Also keep article use and preposition 'for' with 'parties.'
