Funny when people think having a desire that our nation be addressed as Bharat is viewed as a political thing.
I am no fan of any particular political party. There are good people in both national parties and there are also very many incompetent people in both parties. I once again reaffirm i have never had , nor have any political aspirations. If i did have any, would have gladly accepted the last two LS elections from both parties. And if i had to , on-field achievements were enough to get a ticket from either party. Speaking heart out is different from political aspiration. My only interest is “Bharat” .
As for the United Opposition calling themselves I.N.D.I.A , they can very well call themselves B.H.A.R.A.T , there are very many creative people who can suggest apt full forms for the same. Congress even had a yatra called the Bharat Jodo Yatra. Unfortunately many people feel insecure of the word “Bharat” . In my view , irrespective of the alliance name, elections will be labelled between Modi vs the leader of opposition. May the best win.
It will just give me a great deal of satisfaction and fulfillment if we are addressed as a nation by the name “Bharat” .
