goose Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 19 minutes ago, someone said: Pre-2014, Modi can't speak English well, was seen as one valid reason to not vote him. This inferiority complex is pathetic. And India as a name is one representation of ourselves from the western lens. We need our own prospective, our own independent thinking from the dharmic eyes. Analyze both the world, and ourselves , free of the inferiority complex and western bias. It’s nothing to do with inferiority, more the practicalities of speech. chak de borat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 (edited) Ok my lawyer cousin in Delhi says India and Bharat are quoted interchangeably in the written constitution. The ‘change’ is bogus. Another cousin points out the word India dates back to year 5 BC in Greek texts, so not a colonial legacy.

So India is legit because some other civilization else's texts choose use it ? If it has not originated from our own ancient texts ( which it has obviously not ) ...it should be replaced with Bharat.

This is more like a jitter move to counter the opposition, more selfishness than 'Svabhman' in his thinking. Why did the main opposition clown go on a " Bharat jodo " yatra and not " India jodo " yatra ?? Why is the biggest civilian award called " Bharat Ratna " and not " India Ratna " ?

Why not earlier Educate yourself, India and Bharat can be used interchangably, per the constitution in India. Thats why most of our public sector companies have " Bharat " in them. We are using Bharat more frequently now, its our choice. You can use India when a non-BJP govt is in power ( if that ever happens ....)

Why is is there a river named Indus from where Sapta Sindhu Civilization flourished on which India is named after? Name India technically is much older than Bharata... Whose first mention comes as tribe in Rigveda during the battle of ten kings... But Sapta Sindhu civilization existed much earlier. coffee_rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
