India plans to change its name in the coming weeks and has announced it to other countries. The invitations to the next dinners G20 international summitwhich is scheduled to be held at New Delhi, they do not contain common country names. Everything seems to indicate that it will no longer be called India and will adopt a new name.
This this is not a common practice between territories, unless independence or unification clearly occurs. As expected, the news gained momentum political tensions among the main powers and not everyone liked it.
The renaming of the Hindu nation This is not a coincidence And he has more than good reason. Truth is the name of “India” dates back to colonial times. The territory began to be called as we all know it when the British Empire took control of it, in 1770.
Although the state retained the name after the end of the British Mandate in 1947, It seems now that it is over. “The word ‘India’ is a British abuse”politician Harnath Singh Yadav commented on an Indian station to explain the new name.
So, for the purpose of leave this colonial stage, India decided to change its name to ‘Bharat’. Although it sounds very different, it is the same translation of the word “India” in Hindi and Sanskrit. “We should have officially recovered ours original name“, declared Indian cricket star Virender Sehwag to the networks.
The new name is generated controversy even to locals and legislators. Now it’s time to wait and see if the change is made as planned for Monday two weeks from now.
