Hey, I have one question. What's the letters “pur” mean in Indian language, I found lots of places in your country named +++pur?

"Pur" and" Pura" are suffixes meaning "city" or "settlement". The word Pura is the oldest Sanskrit language word for "city"
. it frequent mention in the Rigveda, one of the four canonical sacred texts of Hinduism, most dating between c. 1500–1200 BCE.

for Example: Hastinapur is a town in Merrut district of Indian State of UP. it means

Hastin (elephant) + puram (city) is a city named after the elephants. i.e Hastinapur or Hastinapurm
