i dont know who told you nizams were tolerant?apart from pseudo secularists nobody here in erstwhile hyd state has a gud opinion on nizams.we hate them to the core.the communists lead a great rebellion on the behalf of farmers in which many peasants have also participated. we still use nizam as a synonym for a bad ruler and a razakar for an oppressor.telangana which was under nizam rule was very much backwards compared to their andhra brothers who were under british.

I beg to differ. The Iranian members here will agree that Aab is a persian word. Its close cognate in Sanskrit is "aap".

Panjab = Panch +Aab = 5 rivers...

yes, aab is a persian word, That was my mistake.

Bharat --sanskrit word meaning
Bha---after
rat---Knowledge

i.e a country whose citizens are after knowledge.

Govind/Gobind--- one of the synonym for God

Go == universe
vind/bind == centre

Govind means god is at the centre of universe

Gopal--- one of the synonyms for god meaning
go == universe
pal == palna == one who takes care

So Gopal means it's the God who takes care of universe(everything)

Gopal - It also means caretaker of cows "Go" means Cow. "Pal" means Paalne wale(Care taker)
