the civilization was formed around the river Sindhu but the european called it Indus and hence they called that region as India.
thats is how they called the people living in that region as Hindus. but the actually Hindu is not one who follow perticular religion but the one who lived around indus river.
about the religion, the real name of the hindu religion is "Vedic Religion or Sanatan Dharma".

I don't have any idea why this is in mathematics, but:
I believe the name India comes from the Indus River Valley. The Indus was the site of the earliest Indian civilizations, so I believe the name India has been related to that nation for several hundred years at least.

The name `India’ is derived from the River Indus, the valleys around which were the home of the early settlers. The Aryan worshippers referred to the river Indus as the Sindhu.

India nevertheless observed as India is one in all HER GREATNESS. at the same time as the international salutes her as 'India' she affectionately listen for it. India is a huge u . s . with borders of Pakistan, Himalay, Mianmar, Bengal Bay, Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea etc. yet Bharat, Bharatvarsh - it really is diverse. Vasudheva kudumbakam' is the coverage of Emperor Bharat. there is not any longer a unmarried province which has its unique and authentic little ones except Bharat. In US the 100% inhabitants are migrated. In africa, more advantageous than 50% is uneducated. In Europe, 70% inhabitants is uncultured, yet civilized. No extension. ... at the same time as the British observed as us Indian, we suggested convinced i'm Indian, If someone calls us Hindu, we are saying convinced, i'm Hindu, for this reason I easily have once suggested that each and each one those 1000 names (Sahasra Nam) belongs to me. Whosoever worship me in by any skill call, i'm there. Whichever route they bow in worship to me, I settle for it. Whatver takes position (even if if no longer obtainable for human) on earth, it really is because of my presence. consequently, enable us no longer to regulate THE call. enable ONE call proceed to be FOR EVER. all names are mine and all are eye-catching. If one call is modified, the finished rocord of the international would ought to regulate and for the type of change, the cost will be huge. submit to in innovations, we've had a Muhammed Bean Tuglak, who tried to deliver Delhi to the middle component to the country
