Srinagar: National Conference leader Omar Abdullah has challenged the Center over the dispute over the name ‘Bharat-India’. He challenged the Center to change the constitution first if it has the courage. Speaking to the media on Friday, he said that no one would support the Center to change the constitution to change the name of the country.
“No one can change the name. Changing the name of a country is not easy. To do that, the constitution of the country should be changed. Do it if you dare. We will also see who will support you,” said Omar bitterly. The name of the country was ‘Bharat’ in the invitation letter sent by the Rashtrapati Bhavan to the guests attending the G-20 dinner on behalf of the President of India, sparking speculations that the name of the country would be changed.
Since the name of the opposition coalition is India (INDIA), the opposition is criticizing the government for opening up to these dramas. Meanwhile, BJP leaders are strongly supporting the government’s action. Farooq Abdullah, the founder of the National Conference, also responded to these developments on Friday. Read the constitution first. It says that Bharat and India are one and the same. You (media) are creating controversy,” he said.
