A special parliamentary session in India might be short, but it will possibly produce historic decisions marking a new phase in the country's history, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Monday. The session is expected to focus on the 75-year history of the Indian parliament and consider a number of bills, including the bill on appointment of the new chief election commissioner and other members of the election commission, the advocates amendment bill, the press and registration of periodicals bill, the official bulletin of the session read. The government might add some other bills to the discussion during the session, the opposition said. The special parliamentary session is being held from September 18-22 in New Delhi. Earlier in month, Indian media reported that during the session the Indian government might propose officially changing the name of the country to Bharat, the official Hindu name for the country, instead of India. The rumors about the renaming of the country were sparked early September when Indian President Droupadi Murmu sent out invitations to the G20 dinner, in which she also introduced herself as the leader of Bharat. On September 9, Modi addressed the first session of the G20 Summit in New Delhi using a country nameplate that reads Bharat.

Indian Parliament Expected to Bring Historic Decisions, Says Prime Minister
MOSCOW (Sputnik) –A special parliamentary session focusing on the 75-year history of the Indian Parliament will be held in New Delhi from September 18 to 22. The Indian government could officially change the country's name.
A special parliamentary session in India might be short, but it will possibly produce historic decisions marking a new phase in the country's history, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Monday.
"It may be a short session, but it holds great importance in terms of historical decisions. It marks the beginning of a new phase in India's 75-year journey. The position at which the journey took 75 years was a very inspiring moment. And now while taking that journey forward, we have to make this country a developed country in 2047 with new resolve, new energy, new faith and within the time limit," Modi said during his opening speech in the parliament.
The session is expected to focus on the 75-year history of the Indian parliament and consider a number of bills, including the bill on appointment of the new chief election commissioner and other members of the election commission, the advocates amendment bill, the press and registration of periodicals bill, the official bulletin of the session read.
The government might add some other bills to the discussion during the session, the opposition said.
The special parliamentary session is being held from September 18-22 in New Delhi. Earlier in month,
Indian media reported that during the session the Indian government might propose officially changing the name of the country to Bharat, the official Hindu name for the country, instead of India.
The rumors about the renaming of the country were sparked early September when Indian President Droupadi Murmu sent out invitations to the
G20 dinner, in which she also introduced herself as the leader of Bharat. On September 9, Modi addressed the first session of the G20 Summit in New Delhi using a country nameplate that reads Bharat.
