'7 Race Course Road' in New Delhi used to be the official residential address of Indian Prime Minister. But, that's history now! Race Course Road is being renamed as Lok Klayan Marg and orders to this effect were issued by Delhi Government.
Actually, New Delhi MP Meenakshi Lekhi placed the proposal of renaming Race Course Road as 'Ekatma Marg', inspired from the philosophy of BJP ideologue Deen Dayal Upadhyay.
Few hours before the announcement, Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal told some SIkh Groups sought renaming of Race Course Road after Sh Guru Gobing Singh. However, A decision was taken during the council meeting held Yesterday to rename RCR as Lok Kalyan Marg.
In 2015, Aurangzeb Road in Delhi was renamed after former President APJ Abdul Kalam.
