Why Punjab Government Must Restore Lahore's Original Names | A Message for CM Maryam Nawaz | O1A2G

Should Lahore's historic names be restored? In this episode of Jugnunama, Jugnu Mohsin discusses the Punjab government's decision to revive pre-Partition names of Lahore's neighborhoods, roads, and landmarks—and asks why the initiative appears to have stalled. From Krishan Nagar, Lakshmi Chowk and Dharampura to the wider question of how societies remember their past, Jugnu Mohsin explores the relationship between history, identity, memory, and politics. She argues that many historic names never disappeared from public memory, even when governments officially changed them. The discussion also looks at examples from India, the legacy of Partition, Lahore's ancient neighborhoods such as Ichhra and Baghbanpura, and the remarkable story of Mian Iftikharuddin, one of Punjab's most influential political and media figures. Is restoring historical names merely symbolic, or is it an important acknowledgment of Punjab's rich and diverse heritage?
