Stuck up in a time warp, and a vintage thought world, he parrots what a journalist were taught to say or write during Nehruvian-Gandhi regimes decades back. He cannot believe he is in a tectonically changed sociopolitical environment with newer aspirations and ideals. A NAME is a SYMBOL. Read Swamiji\'s book on significance of Symbols. A name is not a meaningless jumble of letters; it is a Symbol, a Conscious entity , an embodiment of history and culture, of a glory gone by. Its vibration elevates you, energizes you, fills you with pride of belonging to a great ancestry, race. A Name that reminds of a past in which you were invaded, brutalized, your women dishonored, all your loft achievements defiled, and you were shattered, cannot and will not have a place in modern India. I would however, like British names to be retained. The English may have ruled India by the sword, but they restored our honor, protected us, educated us, gave us modern technology and connectd us with the enlightened world. They were mighty rulers.

Your hatred turns you blind , thats why you think Brits honored and protected us , but its otherwise. Brits looted the wealth and turn the golden bird into iron. Our country was called soney ki chidiya before brits. Unlike other invaders Mughals took India as homeland and constructed beautiful monuments which you are proud of. They lived here and buried here. They not only protected indian culture festivals but became part of it.

All rulers or kings were generally despotic and had a number of atrocities to their name. This applies to even people like Charndragupta, Akbar or Ashoka or Krishnadevaraya. The British were even worse than these guys when it came to racist behaviour . So, we generally focus on the good points about these rulers , but realizing that our current democratic rulers are far better . One can't just rename places based on perceived atrocities, since all of them are then guilty.

This brainless idiot does not understand what is far right, what is KKK and least of all what has name changing has got to do with it. Amulya Ganguly is a typical trash our education system produces who ended up in Media perhaps.
Had BJP been 10% of what KKK was, then big mouthed dimwits like AMULYA GANGULY would have been playing marbles in some penitentiary.
