Answer: The name is derived from the Sanskrit Sindhu, which was the name of the Indus River
Explanation:
The river Sindh gave India its name. The Indus Valley civilisation was one of the world's first. The Indus Valley civilisation began approximately 3300 BCE, and because the Indian civilization began near the Indus River, our country was given the name "INDIA." India also has an indigenous tribe known as the Bharata. This is how we came up with the name Bharat for the country. By the time the Indian subcontinent was conquered by the Persians and Greece in the fifth century BCE, 'Sindhu' had been shortened to 'Hindus' to represent the 'country of Hindus.' The name is derived from the Sanskrit Sindhu which was the name of the Indus River and the lower Indus basin (modern Sindh, in Pakistan). Sndhu's Old Persian equivalent was hindu.
