The word "pun" has been stretched on this mailing list to mean not just a
joke based on words with different meanings that sound alike, but to any
joke in the vocabulary at all, but this is surely not even that. The names
of Earth countries in Klingon are frequently their names in one of its
native or official languages, which is exactly what "Bharat" is. It's
neither hidden nor intended to be a joke.
