PM Modi's nameplate sends a 'Bharat' message
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". The decision to replace India with Bharat in President Droupadi Murmu in the invitation to world leaders has sparked a huge political row. 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. The Opposition has launched a scathing attack on the Opposition over the issue. Members of the INDIA bloc have alleged that the Narendra Modi government of "distorting history and dividing India".
