The reports about India potentially being renamed as Bharat have sparked significant discussion and speculation. It’s been reported that the Union Government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi is considering renaming the country, and a fresh resolution for this may be presented during the Special Session of Parliament, scheduled for September 18 – 21.
The speculation around this issue intensified when the invitations for the G20 dinner, set for September 9, referred to the President as the ‘President of Bharat’ instead of ‘President of India.’ This development has raised questions and triggered public interest and debate.
On the other hand, social media is divided, and a lot of BJP supporters are welcoming the move. Meanwhile, some say that Powerstar Pawan Kalyan had voiced out about the same in the past already.
Meanwhile, celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan, Virender Sehwag, Kangana Ranaut and others supported this move.
And some call it black magic …. It’s simply Grey matter honey 🙃
Congratulations to everyone!!
Freed from a slave name …

The opposition party members are having a different opinion on the same.
While there is no constitutional objection to calling India “Bharat”, which is one of the country’s two official names, I hope the government will not be so foolish as to completely dispense with “India”, which has incalculable brand value built up over centuries. We should… pic.twitter.com/V6ucaIfWqj
— Shashi Tharoor (@ShashiTharoor) September 5, 2023After Non-BJP forces united to dethrone the fascist BJP regime and aptly named their alliance #INDIA, now the BJP wants to change 'India' for 'Bharat.'
BJP promised to TRANSFORM India, but all we got is a name change after 9 years!
Seems like the BJP is rattled by a single term…

— ANI (@ANI) September 5, 2023So the news is indeed true.
Rashtrapati Bhawan has sent out an invite for a G20 dinner on Sept 9th in the name of 'President of Bharat' instead of the usual 'President of India'.
Now, Article 1 in the Constitution can read: “Bharat, that was India, shall be a Union of States.”…
