Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan shared on X a G20 dinner invitation from President Murmu which described her position as "President of Bharat", leading to allegations from the Opposition that the government was trying to change the name of the country from India to Bharat.
Bachchan took X, formerly known as Twitter, and simply wrote, "Bharat mata ki jai." He also shared a tricolour emoji with the post. There has been no official word from the government on the issue yet.
