Aligarh To Be Renamed Harigarh? Panchayat Says Plan Sent To UP Government

[jamahir]

Yogi Adityanath wants to project a pro-Hindu image. Hence he is changing various names from Muslim sounding to Hindu sounding.
Some of these changes are merely reverting to original names - such as Allahabad to Prayagraj (Prayag being the original name of the place).
Personally, I dont believe in these name changing antics as it diverts attention from real issues.

I agree with some of what you say.

More immediately there is the upcoming Chief Ministerial election in Uttar Pradesh next year so Yogi's people want to buff up his Hindutvadi image and also make people ignore image-damaging things like the COVID deaths where bodies were flowing en masse in the Ganga river.

And then there is the preparation of the Indian people in general and Hindutvadi activist groups in particular, enthusing them for Yogi's candidature for PMship in the 2024 general election.

Ironically now you would need administrative time and resources to both keep and change it.

Indian voices are like voices beyond a black hole of point of no return. Good for research and avoiding similar issues. It's a data bank of the biggest circus in the world.

To be fair, I did not understand much of what you are trying to say here.
Even though I agreed with you that this name changing is time and money waste, I felt you still are intent on bad-mouthing.

The proposal to rename Aligarh to Harigarh has been sent to the Yogi Adityanath government

New Delhi:
A proposal to rename Uttar Pradesh's Aligarh to Harigarh has been cleared by the zila panchayat at a meeting on Monday, the local body's chief said today. The proposal has been sent to the Yogi Adityanath government.
If the move to rename Aligarh is cleared by the UP government, it would add to a long list of renamed places in the BJP-ruled state, one of the most prominent in recent times being the renaming of Allahabad to Prayagraj, a few months before the Kumbh Mela in January 2019.
"We had a meeting of the zila panchayat board yesterday (Monday). Some proposals were passed in the meeting. The first proposal was about renaming Aligarh to Harigarh. It was passed unanimously. We have sent it to the Chief Minister. I hope it will be approved," Aligarh district panchayat chief Vijay Singh told news agency ANI.
The push to rename Aligarh to Harigarh came from block panchayat leaders Kohri Singh and Umesh Yadav, panchayat members said.

Another proposal cleared by the panchayat is to rename Dhanipur airstrip in Aligarh to Kalyan Singh airstrip, the local body members said.
37CommentsIn November 2019, Yogi Adityanath had indicated the state government would likely keep up with renaming places across the state. "We did what we felt was good. We renamed Mughal Sarai as Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhayay Nagar, Allahabad as Prayagraj and Faizabad as Ayodhya. Where there is a need, the government will take the steps required," Yogi Adityanath had said.

I apologise for the confusion.
