whats happening with city names of india?

Re: whats happening with city names of india?

calcutta is anglicized name of kolkata
same for mumbai
but chennai is another name for madras and does not seem to follow a logic.

i guess that these cities would have been better off with their old names. wats the point in changing them?? u get nothing out of it except some superego that the white man's influence is gone.. extends to muslim invaders in the case of ahmadabad/rampur.. all these attitudes suck...

there is a place in pak called haripur why not change that name to abdullahbad??? its doesnt make sense to change all these well-known names just for ego.. think of the costs involved...

some weird morons in desiland...
