[Goanet] AMENDING CONSTITUTION
One can imagine how Goans will feel regarding the name change. First they were Portuguese than became Indians in 1961 and now Bharatis in 2020. BC PIL TO AMEND CONSTITUTION TO CALL INDIA BHARAT We have Corona and so many life and death issues to handle and amending the Constitution is a serious matter? A bench of the Supreme Court had already disposed of this matter when the Bench told the petioner"s (name not given) lawyer that India is already called Bharat in the Constitution itself.
[Goanet] AMENDING CONSTITUTION
PIL TO AMEND CONSTITUTION TO CALL INDIA BHARAT We have Corona and so many life and death issues to handle and amending the Constitution is a serious matter? A bench of the Supreme Court had already disposed of this matter when the Bench told the petioner"s (name not given) lawyer that India is already called Bharat in the Constitution itself. I was surprised to see reported that another bench headed by the CJI ruled that the plea for Bharat may be treated as a representation by the government! What was the need for so much importance to this plea rendered ? I fail to understand and tomorrow if somebody wants to amend to Hindusthan? What are our priorities and what is so important in changing names in a hurry like we seem to be doing everything else without proper consultation and discussion?
