Power Star Pawan Kalyan on Friday opined that the renaming of the Race Course Road (where the Prime Minister's official residence is located) as the Lok Kalyan Marg is a step in the right direction. The Rajpath, too, has been renamed as Karthavya Path. The Saint George Cross on the Indian Air Force flag has also gone.

As per the Jana Sena Party chief, the steps are in the right direction as they go into eradicating a slavish mindset.

"The Prime Minister has exhibited his devotion to the nation by unveiling the statue of the great warrior Sri Nethaji Subhash Chandra Bose at Karthavya Path. I urge you to take steps to bring back the ashes of Sri Nethaji which have been stored in Japan," Pawan appealed, adding that the DNA of Bose's granddaughter Rajasri Chowdhary Bose should be tested with her permission. "If it is done, the aim of Azadi Ka Amrith Mahotsav can be achieved," the actor-politician added.
