I said the same thing buddy, I said the word "Sindhu" and not " Indus", was what lead to the word, "Hindu". "Hindu" was coined first by the Muslims. I never meant Muslims called the river, as " Indus ". I know it is Sind.

No.... it is not Muslims who call it Indus...Indus is how the Greeks call the river Sindhu...For Persians and Arabs...it is Sindh....and some how they (Persians and Arabs) still mention us as Hindh.

In general....nobody calls us by our original name...... "Bharatham", sometimes even ourselves...
