Etymology of name

I believe the name of Badnawar was earlier Vardhamanpur. Vardhamanpur refers to Lord Mahavir, not to Lord Buddha, as mentioned in the article lead. - Rajmal Saraf — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.196.220.252 ( talk) 14:32, 18 December 2012 (UTC) reply

Yes, that is true. Several Jain inscriptions found here mention Vardhamanapur as the name of the place. A cave temple at Ellora was apparently constructed by a family originally from here in 1247 CE [1] ( talk) 00:36, 28 October 2018 (UTC) reply
