I wonder if politicians in India have an imaginary rating system, so that when they meet over an official dinner / meeting, they could exchange notes on who does well and whether they have earned their stripes as far as contemporariness goes. One contemporary parameter is championing a name change, i guess.
Here is a list (not in any specific order),
Bombay - Mumbai
Madras - Chennai
Bangalore - Bangalooru
..................
Recently, Pondicherry government brought in a resolution to rename the union territory to Puducherry.
I believe that the government machinery could spend the time and money on better projects ( Primary Education, Infrastructure building et al).
One change i like though is the announcement from the Jabber Software Foundation to rename the Jabber Extension Proposals as XMPP Extensions. Atleast, this name change would help remove certain confusion.
