TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday inaugurated the newly-christened Kartavya Path, the stretch of road from Rashtrapati Bhavan to India Gate earlier known as Rajpath. Modi also unveiled a 28-ft-tall statue of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose at India Gate. After the inauguration, Modi said if India had followed the path shown by Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, then it would have reached new heights.
Modi said the renaming has given the country a new energy and inspiration. He said that Kingsway or Rajpath, a symbol of slavery, has now been consigned to history and has been erased forever. “If India had followed path shown by Subhas Chandra Bose, then country would have reached a new high; sadly he was forgotten,” he said.
Netaji’s statue at India Gate will now inspire and guide us, Modi said. The statue is part of the Centre’s Rs 13,450-crore Central Vista project, which will have a new Parliament building, new office and residences for the prime minister and vice-president and new ministry buildings. The North and South Blocks, the secretariat buildings flanking Rashtrapati Bhavan, will be converted into museums.
