Bill to rename Kerala as 'Keralam' passed by Lok Sabha
On Tuesday, the Lok Sabha cleared the Kerala (Alteration of Name) Bill, 2026, paving the way to rename the state as 'Keralam'. The renaming will take place under Article 3 of the Constitution, which grants Parliament the authority to alter the name of any state. This development occurs two years after the Kerala Assembly passed a unanimous resolution in 2024 to change the state's name to 'Keralam'.
