2014 Renaming.
Dr APJ Abdul Kalam road was earlier called "Aurangzeb road", named so by the British after the controversial Mughal emperor, Aurangzeb. In November 2014, Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee petitioned the Prime Minister of India to change the name of Aurangzeb road after Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Sikh guru, as a tribute to him on his martyrdom anniversary observed on 24 November. Guru Tegh Bahadur was executed in Delhi on the orders of the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, who was infamous for his religious oppression. Canadian writer and activist of Pakistani origin, Tarek Fatah, suggested renaming Aurangzeb Road to "Dara Shikoh road", after Dara Shikoh, the brother of Aurangzeb, who was executed by the latter.
"Aurangzeb road" was renamed to "Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Road" by NDMC on request of Maheish Girri (BJP Member of the India Parliament for East Delhi) on 29 August 2015.
"As a tribute to the People's President, I propose to rename the 'Aurangzeb Road' in New Delhi to 'Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Road'. In my opinion, this will be a great way of preserving his memories and legacy forever," wrote Maheish Girri for changing the name of the Road.
The Renaming of "Aurangzeb road" to "Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Road" also got criticism from various sections of historians and politicians, such as Sharad Yadav of Janata Dal (United), Bahujan Samaj Party president Mayawati, Tariq Anwar of Nationalist Congress Party and Asaduddin Owaisi of AIMIM.
