The government in Rajasthan is aiming to change students' names. The government has launched a project called Sarthak Naam Abhiyan. The Rajasthan government aims to change the names of school students who are defamatory or meaningless and give them new names through this project.

The government has directed to change names like Sheru, Shaitan, Tinku, and Kalu and give them meaningful names instead. The government says that such ambiguous and negative names affect the confidence and personality of children.
