Considered to be one of the most important roads in India, it is where the annual Republic Day parade takes place on 26 January.

After climbing Raisina Hill, Rajpath is flanked by the North and South Blocks of the Secretariat Building.

Accordingly, construction in that year began on the district of New Delhi, which would serve as the purpose-built administrative capital of the Indian Empire.

Consequently, the view from Raisina Hill runs unhindered across Rajpath and the India Gate, and is obstructed only by the National Stadium.

The first project was done in 1911 under Sujan Singh Hadaliwale, the Vijay Chowk, but it then halted due to the onset of the First World War.

A number of new features like planned landscapes, lawns with walkways, green spaces, refurbished canals, amenity blocks, improved signages and vending kiosks, new pedestrian underpasses, improved parking spaces, new exhibition panels, and upgraded night lighting were added.
