The name 'INDIA' was NEITHER coined NOR given by the British.

The history of the name "INDIA" is complex and evolving, influenced by various cultures and languages over time. Here's a chronological overview of its historical development:

1. Sanskrit "Sindhu": The ancient Sanskrit name for the river, "Sindhu," was used in Indian texts including Vedas to refer to the Indus River, which flows through parts of modern-day Pakistan and India, was referred to as "Sindhu" in Sanskrit.

2. Persian "Hindu": When the ancient Persians encountered the Indus River and the land beyond it, they adopted the Sanskrit term "Sindhu" into their language as "Hindu." In Persian, the "S" sound often shifted to an "H" sound.

3. Greek "Indós": The ancient Greeks, who had contact with the Persians, adapted the Persian term "Hindu" into "Indós" when referring to the land east of the Indus River. This was likely influenced by their pronunciation and transliteration of Persian words.

4. Formation of "Indus": The term "Indós" used by the Greeks eventually influenced the formation of the name "Indus" as a distinct word for the river.

5. India: The name "India" as we know it today is derived from "Indus." It was used by the Greeks and later by the Romans to describe the entire subcontinent, including the areas beyond the Indus River. Over time, "India" became the standard term for the region.

So, the transition from "Sindhu" to "India" involved linguistic adaptations, cultural interaction and transliterations as the term passed through different cultures and languages, including Sanskrit, Persian, Greek & Roman. Our connection to 'India' is as deep and meaningful as our attachment to 'Bharat'.
