| Govt to rename Rajpath and Central Vista lawns as Kartavya Path | | |
Agencies
New Delhi, Sept 5: The Rajpath and Central Vista lawns in the heart of national capital Delhi have been renamed Kartavya Path in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s push to shed names and symbols reminiscent of the British era. The entire stretch from the Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose statue to the Rashtrapati Bhavan will now be known as Kartavya Path — a reminder of the Prime Minister’s emphasis of duty In the run up to 2047, which completes 100 years of Independence.
During his address from the ramparts of Red Fort on August 15, PM Modi had stressed on the abolition of symbols relating to colonial mindset.
In line with it, the Navy changed its ensign last week, during the launch of the country’s first homemade aircraft carrier INS Vikrant. Earlier, the name of the road on which PM’s residence is located was changed from Race Course Road to Lok Kalyan Marg.
Sources said on September 7, the NDMC has convened a special meeting for the renaming.
This is also a message to the ruling class that the era of rulers and subjects is over. |
