Street in New Delhi to be named after Sushant Singh Rajput

A road in Andrews Ganj in south Delhi will be named after Sushant Singh Rajput.

As per the details, the area’s civic body has cleared a proposal for the action.

SDMC’s Congress councilor Abhishek Dutt had moved the proposal to name the road after late Sushant Singh in September 2020.

“It was cleared by the SDMC House in its meeting yesterday,” a senior official said.

According to the local news source, the Andrews Ganj councilor in the Delhi Municipal Corporation had sent the proposal to the civic body’s road naming and renaming committee.

Dutt had said that a large number of people living in the area abutting Road No 8 hail from Bihar, and had claimed “they have been demanding” to name the stretch from Andrews Ganj to Indira Camp as ‘Sushant Singh Rajput Marg’.

The action is being taken on the birth anniversary of the actor. Sushant was found dead at his Bandra residence in Mumbai on June 14. His death left his fans in grief.
