The Congress party has expressed its opposition to the proposed renaming of Barkatullah University in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh.
The party alleged that the proposal is an attempt to erase the legacy of freedom fighter Hakeem Ajmal Khan, after whom the university was originally named. The Congress has urged the state government to reconsider the decision and preserve the university's original name.
This development is likely to spark a debate on the renaming of institutions and the importance of preserving historical heritage in Bhopal.
