KOLKATA: Amid the controversy, triggered after the invitation for the G20 dinner sent out in the name of ‘President of Bharat’ and not India, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday alleged that history is being rewritten in the country.
The Trinamool Congress supremo questioned the Centre and asked what changed suddenly that we should use only Bharat.
“...Today, they (Centre) changed the name of India. In the invitation card for the G20 Summit dinner, it is mentioned ‘Bharat’...In English, we say ‘India’ and the ‘Indian Constitution’ and in Hindi, we say 'Bharat ka Samvidhan'. We all say 'Bharat', what is new in this? But the name ‘India’ is known to the world...What happened suddenly that they had to change the name of the country?... History is being rewritten in the country,” CM Mamata said. (ANI)
