If India Is A Secular Nation, How Did It Get The Name Hindustan? This Video Has An Unusual Explanation
Have you ever wondered how our country got the name Hindustan? To be true, India has been known by many names over the centuries but this video claims that Hindustan was actually named by Persians who mistook the river Sindhu along which our civilisation came in contact with them. It isn’t that Hindustan was named because of its Hindu inhabitants,the video further claims.
Expectedly, there has been some debate to this explanation and the creators have added a list of sources in the description of the video to support their claim. While we cannot independently verify this claim, we feel that the video does make a case for itself.
What do you think? Do you agree with the claims made by this video?
