Talk:Central Bengal

Rename

The Government of West Bengal has just announced that 7 new districts will be formed in six months, including the creation of two new districts out of Murshidabad district. So the current name of this region will no longer reflect the constituent districts. Plus the name of this district might sound awkward to people outside India. So I propose to rename this article to Central Bengal as it is roughly at the geographic centre of West Bengal. Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 10:42, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

I don't think the name is so awkward, but I support your proposal based on your point about the new districts. Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:53, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

The current name doesn't sound awkward to me, given the West Bengali habit of speaking about "Hooghly-Howrah", "Dinajpur-Malda", "Bankura-Purulia" etc. However, as Murshidabad district in the Birbhum-Murshidabad region will be trifurcated in six months, the name "Central Bengal" will be more appropriate.

Merge Nalhati, Rampurhat and Tarapith into North Birbhum

As the above three destinations are underdeveloped with a lack of attractions, I think these destinations should be merged into the North Birbhum rural area.

Support If they're devoid of attractions, then why not? SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 08:30, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
