Babar Road, Tughlak Road, Akbar Road, Humayun Road, Dara Shikoh Road are named after "Muslim invaders" and the government should change them after Hindu kings and icons, he said.
These roads should be named after Rana Sanga, Prithviraj Chauhan, Guru Gobind Singh, Maharaj Suraj Mal, Shivaji Maharaj, and Hemu Vikramaditya, he demanded.
