Maharashtra govt renames talukas, districts Sambhajinagar, Dharashiv
The state government of Maharashtra has announced the renaming of Aurangabad and Osmanabad to Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar and Dharashiv, respectively. The decision has been met with criticism from those opposing the renaming, with some arguing that it shows a lack of respect for the judiciary and accused the government of playing communal politics. The decision was made public just hours before a special cabinet meeting for Marathwada. The matter is currently pending before the court and will have to survive a legal test.
