India is called "Bharat". Another name is 'Hindustan'.
The modern English name`India' is derived from the River 'Indus'. Home of the early settlers called 'Aryans' who worshiped the river Indus as 'Sindhu'. in medieval times, the Muslim invaders from Persia called the people of Sindhu as 'Hindu'. Thus, historically the name`Hindustan' (India) and refers to the land of the Hindus. wow! amazing story..
The funny thing is.. that Indus flows in Pakistan now. LOL.
