India may soon be renamed Bharat. The rumor about changing the country's name gained momentum after images of the official invitation to the dinner to be hosted by President Droupadi Murmu to the G20 heads of state and ministers next weekend were circulated, in which the leader signed off as "Bharat president." Indian officials later confirmed that the issue is likely to be taken up in a resolution at a special session of Parliament between September 18 and 22.
