On January 30, 2026, it will be 78 years since Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated. Eight decades after Independence, most roads don’t lead to the Mahatma, but some roads, across India, still bear his name. Gujarat has many roads named after Gandhi. “In the old city, Richie Road was renamed Gandhi Road during the freedom struggle. Across Sabarmati River lies an arterial MG Road, which carries the city’s pulse.”In Maharashtra, several arterial roads are named after Gandhi.
