'Rename Gateway as Bharat Dwaar' says, BJP MLA


Mumbai, Jun 12 (TOI): BJP MLA from south Mumbai Raj Purohit has demanded that the Gateway of India should be renamed as 'Bharat Dwaar'.

He will hand over a letter to the CM demanding that Gateway be renamed as 'Bharat Dwaar' as all British era names of railway stations have been changed. "Indian name would give a 'sense of pride' to all Indians," said Purohit.

    We all treasure old values, ideas, things and so on. What is the big deal about changing the name...........Will it bring a better life or living conditions to the Mumbaikars or Indians...... I still hear lots and lots of people still saying BOMBAY.
