Uttar Pradesh Renames Bhadohi District as Sant Ravidas Nagar Bhadohi
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath announced the renaming of Bhadohi district to Sant Ravidas Nagar Bhadohi during a programme inaugurating 112 development projects worth over Rs 1,340 crore. The renaming honors Sant Ravidas, a medieval saint significant to Dalit communities. The district's name has changed multiple times, reflecting political shifts. Adityanath criticized previous governments for misusing funds, while opposition parties view the renaming as a political move ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections.
