‘Bharat’ is a hindi country,which has an english name?! Not fair, if everything is swadeshi, if language, culture,people, religion, everything is pure and orignal then why the most important thing ‘the name’ is corrupted. why does BHARAT has an english name.
The name India is derived from Indus, which is derived from the Old Persian word Hindu, from Sanskrit Sindhu, the historic local appellation for the Indus River. The Constitution of India and common usage in Hindi also recognise Bharat as an official name of equal status. A third name, Hindustan( Land of the Hindus), has been in use since the 12th century, though its contemporary use is unevenly applied.
