New Plaques Unveiled, Aurangzeb Lane Now Abdul Kalam Lane
A week after Aurangzeb Lane in Lutyens' Delhi was renamed Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Lane, plaques with the new name have been unveiled today. The decision was taken on June 28 and New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) Vice Chairman Satish Upadhyay had said a day later that Mughal emperor Aurangzeb had tried to "destroy Indian culture" and there shouldn't be any road in his name.
