**Telangana to Rename Road After Donald Trump**
The Telangana government has announced plans to rename a prominent road housing the US Consulate General in Hyderabad to Donald Trump Avenue, honoring the 45th and 47th Presidents of the United States. This decision is part of a broader initiative to enhance the state’s image as a hub of innovation and global engagement.
The state government will formally notify the Union Ministry of External Affairs and the US Embassy regarding this renaming. Earlier this year, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy suggested at the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF) conclave in Delhi that significant roads in Hyderabad be named after influential global corporations.
In addition to the Donald Trump Avenue, the Telangana government is considering naming other roads to honor notable individuals and corporations. For example, the new Greenfield radial road connecting to the Nehru Outer Ring Road at Raviryala will be named after the late industrialist Padma Shri Ratan Tata, with the interchange in Raviryala already renamed to ‘Tata Interchange.’
Furthermore, a major stretch of road will be designated as ‘Google Street’ to acknowledge the significant contributions of Google Maps and the corporation, coinciding with the establishment of Google’s largest campus outside the United States in Hyderabad.
Plans are also underway to recognize other tech giants, with potential naming of junctions and roads after Microsoft and Wipro, aligning with the Chief Minister’s vision for the city.
In summary, these initiatives reflect Telangana’s commitment to celebrating innovation and honoring influential figures in the global business landscape.
