PM Modi today officially threw open the G20 summit in New Delhi<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

New Delhi: <\/b><\/p>\n

In a strong message amid the Bharat vs India row, the name plate in front of Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he opened the G20 Summit read “Bharat”.<\/p>\n

The decision to replace India with Bharat in President Droupadi Murmu in the invitation to world leaders has sparked a huge political row.<\/p>\n

This has also sparked speculation that the special session of Parliament to be held later this month is aimed at formalising this push to rename India as Bharat.<\/p>\n

“Bharat” has also been used in a G20 booklet meant for foreign delegates titled – “Bharat, The Mother Of Democracy”. “Bharat is the official name of the country. It is mentioned in the Constitution as also in the discussions of 1946-48,” the booklet says.<\/p>\n

The Opposition has launched a scathing attack on the centre over the issue. Members of the INDIA bloc have alleged that the Narendra Modi government of “distorting history and dividing India”.<\/p>\n

In a sharp counter attack, BJP leaders have accused the Opposition of being anti-national and anti-constitutional. They have pointed to the Article 1 of the Constitution.<\/p>\n

Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said the decision to use ‘Bharat’ is a big statement against the colonial mindset. “This should have happened earlier. It gives me great satisfaction. ‘Bharat’ is our introduction and we are proud of it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
