India's Name Change Debate at G20 Summit
India, known as Bharat, is causing a debate over what it should be called at the G20 Summit. Prime Minister Modi's government wants to break away from India's colonial past and some argue that India is a colonial term and should no longer be used. However, this name change is seen as a tactic to push the Hindu nationalist agenda. The term India comes from Greek and Persian, while Bharat is a Sanskrit word. The country's Supreme Court previously rejected renaming requests, but the debate continues.
