Ayupp Analysis – No, India does have any abbreviation. India was declared independent nation on August 16 1947, but by no chance the word India means Independent nation declared in August. The word “India” was derived from “Indus”. Indus used to be name of a river.

This is very funny viral message. I think the intention was spread humour intentionally though. If the name of country will be created based on the month on which it got independence then Pakistan and India should share the same name.

The history of word India –

The name India is derived from Indus, which originates from the Old Persian word Hindu. The latter term stems from the Sanskrit word Sindhu, which was the historical local appellation for the Indus River. The ancient Greeks referred to the Indians as Indoi (Ἰνδοί), which translates as "The people of the Indus".
