Speculation Abounds
It’s important to note that the potential renaming of India as Bharat is speculative, as there has been no official government indication of such a change. Prime Minister Modi has advised ministers to exercise restraint in this ongoing debate. However, with a special Parliament session scheduled from September 18 to 22, speculation continues about the possibility of a name change. While some BJP leaders support the idea, the opposition has raised questions about whether it’s linked to the opposition alliance’s name, INDIA (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance).
