Guys, the problem is that in India no one refers to Indians as Bharatis... They do say Bharatiya Pradhan Mantri... (Indian PM) or Bharatiya Sena (Indian Army)...
(as in the sense of 'belonging to') but never as Bharatis to the people of India and that the reason why some Indians do not like the word being used.

For people of India they would use Bharatiya Janata which is a more appropriate word for Indians and most would agree.

But your intellectual member is saying that even "Bharat" is derogatory )))))))))) i dont know how when your constitution has this word.

he says since the entire world calls it India hence Bharat is unacceptable to him

All I'm saying is if you're gonna say Bharatiya, say it right.

Bharat is not a derogatory word .. only bharti is .. its a misspelled word referring a citizen of nation.

Its like calling a Korean , kirian.. thats all...

leave him aside.... he might be thinking something else while posting...

between it is not derogatory.... you can call as bhartiya (not bharti)

Since this is an English language based forum, it will be nice if we are addressed as Indians instead of Bhartiya (as in Hindi) and Bharti (as in Urdu).

There is valid reason behind it.

The word "Bharti" is a common name for girls in India and its inappropriate to call even the boys as "Bharti".

Many ppl donno Urdu and they take the word "Bharti" as an offence.

I may have lived in America for 10+ years, but I'm a damn proud Indian/Bharatiya

No one said "Bharat" as derogatory, its just you made up.
Let me repeat all my posts, to clarify.
1
""Similarly derogatory way of pakistani is
"Paks" not Pakis.

The term "Pak1" is the region where the group of people reside. The term stan means "people of." Pakistan (pronounced - Pah-kee-stahn)is translated as the people of the Pak1 region. All the "stans" refer to the region. Afghanistan, Kurdistan, etc..

So Mam you are paranoid.""
2
"""BHARAT

BTW
Indians are not called Bharatis same way as pakistanis are not called Pakis(Although small minoirties of people claim its right).
On topic, these allegations on Veena malik had to wait until she is over with her game in Big Boss."""

So anything other than Bharatiya is wrong.

SO I WOULD FIND INTERESTING IF YOU COULD PROVE YOUR CREDIBILITY BY SHOWING WHERE SOME INDIAN MEMBER TERMED "BHARAT" as Derogatory.?

 

[shuntmaster]

For years....But you joined 5 months ago.... damn multiple IDs.

And also explain what derogatory. India is Bharat and Bharat is India. So Indian is Bharti and Bharti is Indian.

CORRECTION: Indian is Bharatiya and Bharatiya is Indian.
Bharti is a common Indian name for girls/ladies.

Yeah it sounds like calling us a mobile company name.. instead of it call us vodafone or bsnl ..

Poor journalism.... If someone say in Pakistan say Zarori kaam but India he'll say Jaroori Kaam. Tell me which one is wrong. Its the language difference. Why when i type defence firefox put red line under it but when i type defense it dont put red line under it. both defence and defense are right words.
