After Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath renamed famous cities of Uttar Pradesh and indicated that similar changes for other places are in the offing, his party leaders have not only lauded the move, but have also pressed for rechristening of cities such as Muzaffarnagar and Agra.

Tonight on Left, Right and Centre, we ask, is the real agenda of renaming cities actually polarising politics? Is the UP government contributing to misplaced priorities?
