Chandalpur village in Kabirdham district has officially been renamed Chandanpur following a gazette publication presented to residents by Deputy CM Vijay Sharma.
In an administrative update from Kabirdham district, the village of Chandalpur has been officially renamed Chandanpur following the publication of a formal state gazette notification. Chhattisgarh Deputy Chief Minister and Kawardha MLA Vijay Sharma personally visited the village late Friday night amid heavy rainfall to hand over a copy of the official gazette to the local residents. The government notification fulfills a long-standing demand raised by the community.
During his late-night visit, Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Sharma met with local residents despite inclement weather to congratulate them on achieving the official change in the village's identity. He handed over copies of the state gazette notification directly to community members, formalizing the transition in official records.
According to officials, the publication in the state gazette completes the legal and administrative procedures required to update the settlement's name across government databases and documentation. The village will henceforth be recognized exclusively as Chandanpur in all future administrative proceedings.
The renaming marks the resolution of a sustained petition by the local populace, who had been urging authorities to alter the historic name for a long time. With the gazette publication now finalized, local revenue, electoral, and administrative records will be updated to reflect Chandanpur as the official designation.
