Demand to change the name of India Gate

What did Jamal Siddiqui write in the letter

Jamal Siddiqui wrote a letter to PM Modi and said, "Under your leadership, the feeling of patriotism and dedication towards Indian culture has increased in the hearts of 140 crore Indian brothers and sisters of India. The way the wounds inflicted by the Mughal invaders and the looter British have been healed and the stain of slavery has been washed away during your tenure, the whole of India is happy with this."

Appeal for name change

He further wrote, "Sir, you have changed the name of the road named after the cruel Mughal Aurangzeb to APJ Kalam Road, removed the statue of King George V from India Gate and installed the statue of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and named Rajpath as Kartavya Path and linked it to the culture of India. Similarly, please change the name of India Gate to 'Bharat Mata Dwar'. Changing India Gate to 'Bharat Mata Dwar' will be a true tribute to the names of thousands of martyred patriots inscribed on that pillar. You are humbly requested to consider my proposal and change the name to 'Bharat Mata Dwar'."
