The newly elected Firozabad Zila Panchayat has passed a proposal to rename the district, Chandra Nagar, according to officials.
On Saturday, the proposal was passed at the first meeting of the district panchayat board & it will be sent to the Govt for approval, BJP leader & block pramukh Lakshmi Narain Yadav said.
Yadav, who moved the proposal, said the district was earlier known as Chandrawad, but was later renamed Firozabad.
He said that “It is necessary to change the name to Chandra Nagar".
Cabinet Minister Rajendra Singh alias Moti Singh during his oath ceremony last month had addressed the district as Chandra Nagar.
Many organisations in the district have demanded to rename it, Suhag Nagar, as it is famous of its bangle industries.
