Stalinabad, the capital of Tadzhik Republic, did regain its original Tadzhik name of Dushanbe , but here the change was back to the old name of a caravan stop and had nothing to do with tsarist Russia.
But the way in which names were changed in the period of destalinization differed significantly from the reversion to tsarist names in the period of glasnost and perestroika.
