  • Will the name of ‘this’ state be changed after Kerala?
  • BJP MP wrote letter to Chief Minister and Home Minister
  • A request to approve the resolution in the Assembly

Mumbai: Modi Cabinet On February 24, the name of the state of Kerala was approved. Kerala Now known as Kerala. After that, the demand to change the name of Delhi has also started. BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal has demanded to change the name of Delhi to Indraprastha. He has written to Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and Home Minister Amit Shah. Efforts have been made to restore Delhi’s former identity. Chandni Chowk BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal has started these efforts. The MP has requested the central government to consider renaming the national capital Delhi to Indraprastha.

MPs say this will re-establish the historical and civilizational identity of India’s capital. He also suggested installing statues of the Pandavas somewhere in Delhi, preferably in the Purana Fort, to revive Delhi’s ancient cultural and historical identity.

A request to approve the resolution in the Assembly

In a letter to Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, MP Khandelwal requested the Delhi Assembly to pass a resolution to rename Delhi as “Indraprastha”. In a letter to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Khandelwal said that India is one of the oldest civilizations in the world. The name of its national capital should reflect its deep historical and cultural values.

Khandelwal wrote that…

In support of the name change, Khandelwal wrote that excavations by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) at Purana Fort have found evidence of ancient settlements dating back to around 1000 BCE, including remains of the Painted Gray Ware (PGW) culture, which is linked to the Mahabharata period. According to him, these discoveries reinforce the historical belief that ancient Indraprastha was located at the same place as Delhi today. Citing these facts, Khandelwal argues that the name Delhi came into use relatively late in the medieval period, which historians associate with names like Delhika or Dehli. But this does not indicate its origin and identification with an ancient culture.

Who has the right to change the name of the state?

According to the Constitution of India, the final authority to change the name of any state in the country rests only with the country’s parliament. Article 3 of the Constitution gives Parliament the exclusive power to enlarge the area, change the boundaries or change the name of any State. It is under this Article that the process of changing the geographical and political identity of any state takes place.
