Indian logistics company Blue Dart has rebranded its Dart Plus service to Bharat Dart. This comes days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's placard at the opening of the G20 summit referred to India as "Bharat".

In an exchange filing, Blue Dart mentioned that its decision to rebrand stems from an extensive discovery and research process. The company also mentioned that Bharat Dart is poised to redefine express logistics service in Bharat, offering unmatched speed, coverage, and support for businesses of all sizes.

President Droupadi Murmu also referred to herself as the "President of Bharat" in a dinner invitation for a reception of G20 leaders that sparked controversy
