New Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) decided to rename Delhi’s famous Aurangzeb Road as APJ Abdul Kalam Road, as the jurisdiction of the road comes under it and Union Government has given its nod to rename it.
- The road was earlier named after the Mughal emperor Abul Muzaffar Muhi-ud-Din Muhammad Aurangzeb. It is also said that, Aurangzeb Road is India’s richest road where property prices are the highest and is located in the heart of Lutyens’ bungalow zone.
- The road begins at the Taj Mansingh hotel near India Gate and joins Safdarjung Road near the official residence of the Indian Prime Minister
