Hyderabad, Feb 15 (Hydnow): BJP MLA Dhanpal Suryanarayana reiterated the saffron party’s demand to rename the Telangana Capital city, Hyderabad as Bhagyanagar.
The BJP MLA from Nizamabad has raised this demand on the floor of the Assembly, today and said that along with the renaming of Hyderabad city with Bhagyanagar, the Names of Nizamabad should be renamed as Induru, Adilabad to Edulrapuram and Warangal to Orguallu.
He said that since the Congress-led state government has taken a call to change the state’s abbreviation on the vehicle registration plates from TS to TG and the state’s emblem, “it has to continue that practice by renaming Hyderabad, Nizamabad, Adilabad, and Warangal. He said the demand to rename these cities has been pending for a long time.

It may be recalled that the BJP has made such contentious demands several times in the past as part of their efforts to rename places with historical or cultural significance, often with a focus on Hindu names or to remove Islamic references.
During the Assembly polls in 2023, the BJP’s state party chief and Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy, had stated that Hyderabad will be renamed Bhagyanagar if the BJP is voted into power and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and other senior leaders of the party have supported this demand. BJP MP D.Arvind has advocated for Nizamabad to be renamed Indur, claiming the current name is “inauspicious”. (Hydnow)
