A dinner invite has been sent to G-20 delegates and other guests from ‘President of Bharat’, a move which ignited a political row
Prime Minister Narendra Modi was identified as the leader representing ‘Bharat’ at the G-20 Summit in New Delhi on September 9 as he made his opening remarks at the beginning of the two-day meeting.
The government has used ‘Bharat’, a name used in the Constitution for the country along with India, in several official G-20 documents. Official sources have said it is a conscious decision.
