'Mumbai road named after Priyanka Chopra's late father' by K.J.S.Chatrath

A road in Mumbai has been named after actress (I prefer to use this word and not 'actor') Priyanka Chopra's late father. A few years back a road in the same Mumbai was named after the son of singers Jagjit Sigh and Chitra Singh who had died in a tragic road accident.

Of course every Indian town has a Mahatma Gandhi road as every French town has a Charles De Gaulle road. But they had done something substantial for their respective countries.

I am not aware of the contributions of the two deceased persons after whom roads have been named in Mumbai. No disrespect is meant to them. May the departed souls rest in peace.

But this is not the way to name roads.
