Sheikh Mohammed orders Dubai district to be renamed Hind City

It wasn’t the only name change to garner attention. In January, Ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE ordered that a district in the emirate be renamed.

Al Minhad and its surrounding areas are now known as “Hind City”.

The city includes four zones, Hind 1, Hind 2, Hind 3, and Hind 4, and spans an area of 83.9km. The city is served by major roads, including Emirates Road, Al Ain Road, and Jebel Ali-Lehbab Road.
