Call to rename Delhi as INDRAPRASTHA
Millennium Post Delhi
|Delhi 26 February 2026
BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal on Wednesday urged Union Home Minister Amit Shah to change the name of Delhi to Indraprastha, claiming that it reflects the city’s true historical roots and cultural legacy.
-
In a letter to Shah, a day after the Union Cabinet gave its nod to rename Kerala to Keralam, the Lok Sabha MP from Delhi’s Chandni Chowk constituency said that the Mahabharata describes Indraprastha as a magnificent city built on the banks of the Yamuna river, precisely matching the geographical setting of modern Delhi.
It is also supported by the Archaeological Survey of Indias excavations at Purana Qila, Khandelwal claimed.
