Hindustan is derived from the Dari (Persian) word Hindu, which is itself is derived from Sindhu, the original Sanskrit name of Indus River. Sindhu is a river in Sanskrit.[3] This together with a popular suffix -stān (Sanskrit `Sthānam', Old Persian 'sthāna', meaning land) [4][5] gave birth to the word Hindustan, which was rendered as Hindustan.[6] In modern Persian (so called Dari), either Hind or Hindustan may be used to refer to India.
