  1. I want to thank the Great Martyrs because of whom I am enjoying my religious freedom. Otherwise today our daughters would be in burkha suffering triple talaq and halala. So I want not only to Rename Aurangzeb Road to Guru Tegh Bahadur Road or to give Shri Guru Tegh Bahadur Singh ji’s name to Delhi Airport but to replace Auranzeb’s name with four Sahibzade’s names in whole India and also to name Nanded city after Shri Guru Gobin Singhji.

  3. Aurangzeb Road in Delhi should be changed in the name of GURU TEG BAHADUR, who (alongwith his two disciples) has sacrified his life for the Hindu Community.

  9. It is really unbearable to see Aurangzeb road in delhi, want to break the sign board depicting this name but do so in legal way,
    I support this petition

  10. Aurangzeb not only committed unspeakable atrocities against Hindus, he imprisoned his own father and killed his brothers to occupy the throne. How can we have a road named after this MASS MURDERER in independent India?

  14. Renaming the road to Guru Teg Bahadur Singh ji name will be a good step to provide justice to all of them suffered during Aurangajeb’s rule.

  16. Aurangzeb was not only a tyrant but was a heir to a dynasty which invaded India, killed the natives, imposed their religion and law for centuries. Having a road in his name in my opinion is continuation of the same slavery. Renaming the road to Guru Tegh Bahadur Road will not only be a small tribute to the one of the greatest martyr of this nation, but a step towards complete freedom and justice. And I am looking forward for this petition to be accepted.

  22. sharm ki baat hei ke ek badshah jisne apne junoon ki khatir hzaron ko katal kiya bhagwan ram aur shri krishna ke janam sthan ko nasht karke masjid banwaee guru teg bahadur ji, bhi mati das, bhai sati das & bhai dayala ji ko shaheed kiya aur na jane kitne bekasoor logo ko jabran musalman banaya aur jisne inkaar kiya uska vadh kar diya. eise aadmi ka naam hindustan ki sansad ke paas beshkimti area ke road ko dena hamaari virasat ko gali dene jaisa hei is liye is road ka naam badalna jarrori hei

  25. What an idea!!! Somebody has to take it up resolutely and the support would be aplenty. Aurangzeb road is a stigma on the face of the country. Naming it Guru Tegh Bahadur road would be most apt and a homage to Guru Tegh Bahudur who laid down his life for his people and in a most gruesome manner. The secularists are going to oppose it ……… one only has to go to Aurangabad to see what is happening there…. the grave of this tyrant, aurangzeb, is ever covered with flowers and currency notes. The sad fact is one man villain is other man’s hero ……. till the justice prevails!

  29. Shame to Badal and all so CALLED immoral Sikh leaders , Jathedars and SGPC for not doing anything sincerely for the SIKH nation and its peopels !
    Glorty and Chardiakaln to all Shaheeds of the past and presnt time!

  30. Every human right believer , every Indian specially Hindus should make a pilgrimage to Gurduaras of Siss Ganjj and Rakab Ganj in Delhi of Guru Teg Bahadur Ji Sahib where he laid down HIS life for them! Hindus been slaves for centuries have no gut to do so.! Rather than they killed in the same city thousands of innocent Sikhs men women children in 1984 ! Shame on every hindu and indian Govt .!

  42. What a Great thought of renaming and without any delay just petitioning also .. May everyone count it highly and participate .. tonnes of thanks Sir ..

  44. It would be better to rename it someones memory who sacrificed their life for good cause instead of a tyrannical ruler who wanted to enslave Hindus.

  46. who sacrificed his life to save the religion of the Hindus who were being forcibly converted by the Mughal regime of that time. Guru Tegh Bhadur ji…waheguru ji da khalsa waheguru ji di fateh…

  47. The road should be named in the honour of Guru Tegh Bahadur ji as they have gave their life for the sake hindus religion. This honour should be given to Guru JI.

  50. Sri Guru Teg Bahadur ,hind ki chadar sacrificed his life for the nation and the oppressed. We request that the road be renamed as Guru Teg bahadur Road

  56. Change it to sri guru tegh bahadur ji…we want to dedicate it to the great gurus who saved us…and not the one’s that are against mankind
