UP Cabinet approves renaming Jalalabad to 'Parshurampuri'

The Uttar Pradesh government, headed by CM Yogi Adityanath, has cleared a proposal to change the name of Shahjahanpur's Jalalabad to Parshurampuri. This move follows persistent requests from local residents who wanted the town renamed to pay tribute to Lord Parshuram. The town, which dates back to roughly 1560, was originally named after Akbar. According to officials, it is a common belief that Jalalabad is the birthplace of Lord Parshuram.
