Dinesh Gundurao lashes at Centre, says “Country’s situation should be changed not name”
Bengaluru: Amidst ongoing controversy surrounding the renaming of India to ‘Bharat’, Karnataka Health and Family Welfare Minister Dinesh Gundurao on Tuesday lashing out at the center stated that, "Both 'India' and 'Bharat' hold special places in our hearts, there is no difference between both. Renaming it 'Bharat' with good intentions is not objectionable. It is an act of stupidity to rename the country’s name to ‘Bharat’ in the context of opposition parties uniting to form an alliance under the name I.N.D.I.A (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance).
Taking to Twitter on Tuesday, Dinesh stated, “The central government is planning to rename the country as 'Bharat' instead of 'INDIA' because of the opposition alliance's adoption of the name 'I.N.D.I.A. Is BJP so afraid of INDIA alliance? What is the motive behind renaming the country apart from the reason of fear of opposition alliance 'INDIA',” he asked, posing this question to PM Modi.
He further added that, “If the name INDIA is changed to 'Bharat' will the country change? Dear Modi, what needs to be changed is not the name of the country, but the situation of the country. Instead of changing the name, change the standard of living of the people. Change the minds of your devotees who are disturbing the peace of society through hatred. Make this country a garden of peace for all religions.”
The row came to light after reports claiming that an invite for a G20 dinner was sent by the Rashtrapati Bhawan on Sept 9th in the name of 'President of Bharat' instead of the usual ‘President of India. A photo of the same also went viral over the internet, sparking debate across the country.

Jharkhand horror: Man kills live-in partner, chops body into 40 pieces
Ranchi (PTI): A 25-year-old man, who works as a butcher, allegedly strangled to death his live-in partner and chopped her body into 40 to 50 pieces in a forested area in Jharkhand’s Khunti district, police said on Wednesday.
The accused, identified as Naresh Bhengra, was arrested.
The matter came to light after around a fortnight after the killing when a stray dog was found with human body parts near Jordag village in Jariagarh police station on November 24.
Bhengra was in a live-in relationship with the deceased, a 24-year-old woman also from Khunti district, in Tamil Nadu for the past couple of years. Sometime back, he returned to Jharkhand, got married to another woman without telling his partner anything and went back to the southern state without his wife to join her.
"The brutal incident occurred on November 8 when they reached Khunti as the accused who had married another woman did not wish to take her home. Instead, he took her to a forest near his house at Jordag village in Jariagarh police station and chopped the body into pieces. The man has been arrested," Khunti Superintendent of Police Aman Kumar told PTI.
Inspector Ashok Singh who investigated the case said the man worked in a butcher shop in Tamil Nadu and was expert in slicing chicken.
“He admitted chopping the body parts of the woman into 40 to 50 pieces before leaving those in the forest for wild animals to feast on. The police recovered several parts on November 24 after a dog in the area was seen with a hand," Singh told PTI.
Singh said that the woman, who was unaware of his marriage, pressured him to return to Khunti. After reaching Ranchi, they boarded a train on November 24 and headed to the man's village.
"Under a plan, the man took her to Khunti in an autorickshaw near his home and asked her to wait. He returned with sharp weapons and strangulated her with her dupatta after raping her. He then cut the body into 40 to 50 pieces and left for his home to live with his wife," Singh said.
The woman, however, had informed her mother that she had boarded a train and would be living with her partner, the police officer said.
Following the recovery of body parts, a bag was also found in the forest with the murdered woman's belongings including her Aadhaar card. The mother of the woman was called at the spot and she identified her daughter's belongings.
"The mother suspected the man behind the crime who after being nabbed by the police admitted to chopping the woman into pieces," the official added.
The incident has sent shockwaves among people in the region, with the Shraddha Walker murder case of 2022 still fresh in their memory.
Walker was killed by her live-in partner who chopped her body into pieces before dumping them in the jungle in South Delhi’s Mehrauli.
