“Naming an airport”

That the Shiv Sena cannot see their way to naming the Navi Mumbai International airport after J. R. D. Tata (pictured), the man who brought civil aviation to India doesn’t surprise me ("Naming an airport,” Events and Personalities, Parsiana, July 7- July 20, 2021). They cannot see beyond their Chhatrapati Shivaji, for railway terminuses or museums. And that’s why "Mumbai” will always be Bombay for me.
