Template does't exist

While opening

server its shows template does't exist at index.html

For me it worked to leave it template_name = 'index.html', I made a folder templates in the root shops directory (not the nearbyshops directory).
I think it is redundant to put it like template_name = shops/index.html, because we are already in the shops directory.
