Besides renaming Faizabad as Ayodhya, which took place in November 2018, the ruling dispensation had also changed the name of Allahabad to Prayagraj, in October that year. Earlier, in June 2018, the over-century-old Mughalsarai railway station was renamed after Deen Dayal Upadhyay, an ideologue of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
