Gurgaon Name Change

A First Information Report or FIR has been filed against businessman Robert Vadra, the brother-in-law of Congress president Rahul Gandhi, and former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda over alleged irregularities in a string of land deals in Gurgaon.

A walk down the crowded Sadar Bazar in the old town or a stroll through the upscale Cyber City is enough to tell a visitor that the place still quintessentially remains Gurgaon.

Randeep tweeted: Changing Gurgaon's name to Gurugram is a blow to the culture, history and the language of Haryana. Gram is not our word, why was this done

The corporate hub of Haryana, Gurgaon, will now be known as Gurugram -- in a reminder of its perceived epic roots. The change in name was announced by the Manohar Lal Khattar government today, which said it was bowing to the demand of the residents.

Metro rail stations in Haryana will have new names, with the Haryana government on Tuesday announcing setting up of a four-member committee to frame the policy and to consider the change in the name of Metro stations falling in the state.
