________________ इतिहास के प्रकाशमे ३१७ नही है। मुसलिम विजेताओने इस शब्दका निर्माण किया था। पं० जवाहरलाल नेहरूने लिखा है कि-"भारतवर्षके लिए हिन्द शब्दका व्यवहार होता है, जो हिन्दुस्तान शब्दका सक्षिप्त रूप है। पश्चिम एशिया, ईरान, टर्की, ईराक, अफगानिस्तान, ईजिप्ट तथा अन्यत्र भारतको पहलेकी तरह आज भी हिन्द कहा जाता है । प्रत्येक भारतीय पदार्थको हिन्दी कहते है। हिन्दीका धर्मसे कोई सम्बन्ध नहीं है। भारतीय मुसलिम अथवा भारतीय ईसाई उतना ही हिन्दी है, जितना कि हिन्दूधर्मको माननेवाला । अमेरिकावासी सभी भारतीयोको हिन्दू कहते है, यह पूर्णतया मिथ्या बात नहीं है। conquerors of India to describe the non-descript people living in the cis-Indus country At the most the term is about 300 years old, while Hinduism as we practise it today is about 1200 years old” -“Facts and Fancies "by Dr Sir H S Gour. p. 405 १ “The correct word for "Indian' as applied to country and culture or the historical continuity of our varying traditions is Hindi from 'Hind ' a shortened form of Hindus Hind is still commonly used for India In the countries of western Asia, in Iran and Turkey, in Iraq, Afganistan, Egypt and elsewhere India has always been referred to and is still called Hind and everything Indian is called Hindi", 'Hndi' has nothing to do with religion and a modern or christian Indian is as much a Hindi as a person who follows Hinduism as a religion Americans who call all Indians Hindus are not far wrong They would be perfectly coriect, if they used the word of Hindi".
