The Supreme Court (SC) on Monday dismissed a plea filed by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Ashwini Kumar Upadhyay seeking the renaming of cities and historical places that he claims are named after "invaders." The SC bench of Justices BV Nagarathna and KM Joseph allegedly questioned the PIL's intent, saying it will resurrect those issues, "which would keep the country on the boil."
