मेरो बुझाई: १) धेरै बिन्दु मंध्ये Indus Valley वा सिन्ध घांटी बाट मानब बिकाश सुरुवात भएको ले त्यहाँ बाट नामाक्रित भइ India र त्यहाँ को सनातन धर्म लाई hindu भनिएको हो. २) हिन्दु ग्रन्थ अनुसार ऋषि विश्वामित्र र अप्सरा मेनुका कि छोरी शकुन्तला, तथा राजा दुश्यन्त बाट जन्मेको छोरा महाराजा भरत ले अहिले को Indian Subcontinent जितेर एक राज्य स्थापना गरे . यो राज्य लाई भरत वर्ष भनिन्थ्यो. त्यही बिशाल राज्य लाई ideal मानेर ब्रिटिश साम्राज्य को बिरुद्ध लड्ने नेता हरु ले आफु हरु लाई एक गुट बनाए र एक नया एकीकृत स्वतन्त्र राज्य को परिकल्पना गरे र त्यसलाई पनि भारत भने.

This is a good question. The name Bharat came from Bharat Varsa mentioned in Vishnu Puran. Bharat Varsa would include the countries you have mentioned above, south of Himalaya and North of Indian Ocean (Vishnu Purana (2.3.1) ) However the name Bharat has been used in India's constitution as a synonym to India. Hence, in present context, Bharat name was derived from Bharat Varsa and is smaller than Bharat Varsa. That means it is perfectly okay for Indians to call it Bharat and mean the present India. What I think is not historically correct is to claim that many things that India says came from India. It actually came from Bharat Varsa. Things like binary number system (hence the number 0), civilization (Indus Valley civilization), astrology etc, they all came from Bharat varsa, not India. That's like crediting Turkey for things Ottoman Empire did.

Thats the same issue its in tension for every where - Lord Budhdha was born in Bharat barsh not in india , which in now in nepal ! So i think it needs to be corrected , india (इन्डिया) - means not a भारत । Or भारत को english meaning - india hunu hudaina ।

So you just post your stuff but don't bother reading the discussion that others have forwarded? Did you read what I wrote? Bharat varsha is one thing and Bharat is another.
