| Abstract: | This article examines the transformation of British-era place names in Pakistan after independence in 1947. It investigates the extent to which colonial toponyms have been retained, altered, or replaced, and analyzes the political, cultural, and historical factors influencing these changes. The study highlights how place names function as symbols of identity and reflect broader postcolonial dynamics in Pakistani society. |
