Reclaiming Bharat: Why Ghaziabad must be renamed as Harnandpur

Recently, Yogi Adityanath, the no-nonsensical chief minister of Uttar Pradesh formally expressed his intent to rename Azamgarh to Aryamgarh. However, there are a great deal of cities which are in dire want of reclaiming their Hindu id by the stepping stone of renaming. Ghaziabad, the closest neighbour of the nation’s capital Delhi ought to be the following greatest contender for the renaming undertaking.Marxist distorians force-fed their lies about GhaziabadThe present identify of this 210km sq. space close to Delhi traces its origin to 1,740AD. Marxist historians with left-liberal tilts have instructed Indians that town was ‘founded’ in 1740 by Ghazi-ud-Din, who served as a Wazir within the court docket of Mughal emperor Muhammad Shah. The narcissistic Ghazi-ud-Din determined to call the place after his personal identify, ‘Ghaziuddinnagar’. 124 years later, when Britishers wanted a brief identify for administrating railway routes by the area, they modified ‘Ghaziuddinnagar’ to ‘Ghaziabad’ in 1864.As regular, Marxist distortions have achieved a historic sleight of hand in bringing out the true historical past of the realm. According to them, town was ‘founded’ by Ghazi-ud-Din. This is a patent, absurd and in-your-face type of lie. No metropolis in India has been ‘founded’ throughout the previous couple of thousand years of Sanatan civilisation.Ghaziabad was not based however renamedThe basis of a metropolis can solely be laid if it has a couple of kilometers of barren and unutilised land. If the land is barren, then solely a gaggle of individuals can come, set up their habitat, develop their financial system to feed their individuals, after which attempt on the hunt of growing their very own cultural and different identities.When Mughals and different previous Muslim invaders got here to India, it was already often called the Golden Bird. Every land was fertile and other people had been residing peacefully and cordially. The identical holds true for the area now often called Ghaziabad. In essence, the idea of Ghaziabad being ‘founded’ doesn’t have a grounding in historic fact. Ghazi-ud-Din didn’t discover Ghaziabad however really renamed an already established metropolis.The actual historical past of the place takes us again to RaavanTo search out the actual historical past of a spot, it’s at all times protected to seek out some non secular locations and hint their historical past way back to attainable. Mandirs and different non secular institutes are an indication that directors of a geographical location (Ghaziabad on this case) had made sufficient preparations to feed its inhabitants and concurrently have constructed a spot to protect the sanctity of the Bhagwan who blessed them with meals.In present Ghaziabad, Dudheshwar Nath Mandir is claimed to be the oldest of town. The Mandir traces again its origin to Raavan. It is broadly believed that the Mandir has been established on the place the place Raavan’s father Vishrav had achieved his Tapasya.Puranas give an elaborate description of the placeIn the Puranas, there’s a description of Hiranyagarbha Jyotirlinga on the banks of the river Haranandi (Hiranyada), the place Vishwashrava, the daddy of Ravana, had achieved his Tapasya. Later on, the identify of the river Harnandi turned Hindon and Hiranyagarbha Jyotirlinga is the Shivaling established within the Dudheshwar Mahadev Math temple, three and a half toes under the bottom.According to Mahanth Narayan Giri of the Mandir, earlier there was a tunnel by which somebody may merely journey to Hindon and Bishrakh, the village of Raavan.Math Parampara and Shivaji Maharaj ConnectionThe Mandir is claimed to be persevering with the Mahant custom for not less than 550 years now. The Mandir administration presents its tributes to all these Mahanths who’ve served the Mandir so far, because it has preserved the ashes of all these Mahanths.More lately, the Dudheshwar Nath Mandirtraces its historical past to the good Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. It is broadly believed that the primary gate of the Mandir has been made by cautious calligraphy of just one stone. At the middle of the gate, there’s a sculpture of Bhagwan Ganesha. It is claimed that the present construction of the Mandir owes its standing to Chhatrapati Shiva Ji Maharaj.Looking on the wealthy historical past of the realm, it’s unwise to call it within the identify of somebody who served the brutal, genocidal and treacherous Mughals.Harnandpur ought to be the brand new nameSince town traces itself again to the Harnandi river as talked about in Puranas, will probably be justful to alter the identify from Ghaziabad to Harnandpur. The identify Harnandpur will likely be a becoming tribute to the river which supplies its selfless service to the individuals.The identify of the place ought to signify its historic fact and never some concocted and fabricated lies. The origin of the place is so outdated that it’s troublesome to determine its actual date, even by the trendy scientific archaeological and anthropological proof. Thanks to Puranas, we Indians have a good concept of its historic origin. The subsequent step ought to be recognising the 1000’s of years outdated historical past and altering the identify from Ghaziabad to Harnandpur.
