“Mirat” vs. Meerut — Which Indian state is this city actually in?
I keep seeing “Mirat” in older texts and on a few family documents, but Google mostly returns “Meerut.” Are these the same place, and, crucially, which state is it in for current forms/travel plans? I need one clear reference I can share with relatives to end the spelling debate and confirm the present-day state alignment for addresses.




This cleared it up in one read—“Mirat” is an older/alternate rendering of Meerut, and the page situates it squarely in its current state context. Super easy to cite back to the family WhatsApp: meerut info.
