List of renamed Indian cities and states


Many traditional place names were changed in India during British rule, as well as a limited number during earlier Muslim conquests. Ever since the British left India in 1947, many cities, streets, places, and buildings throughout India were changed back to their original names. Certain traditional names that have not been changed, however, continue to be popular.

Effective from 1st Nov 2014
