The Bareilly Development Authority (BDA), in the interim, considered the task of introducing a jhumka as a fascination for the visitors visiting the city. The project hit barricades a few times before taking solid shape.

The Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of Bareilly, Rajesh Pandey, disclosed to The Indian Express, “When I was taking a look at our Gazetteer alongside the police chief, we found that there were two locales in the united province during the British rule — Bareilly and Rae Bareli. Furthermore, Britishers, just as the common people, used to get confused between the two. To keep away from confusion, individuals began calling Bareilly as “Baans Bareilly” for its rich creation of bamboo. Be that as it may, after the song got famous, Baans Bareilly unexpectedly came to be known as Jhumka wala Bareilly,”

Introducing the jhumka, Union Minister Santosh Gangwar stated: “The collaborative attempt made by the authority, different associations and local people in setting up of the ambitious jhumka in Bareilly is admirable. It looks delightful and extraordinary. Guests will at long last have the option to relate the milestone jhumka in Bareilly with the evergreen song.”
