    My home is just beside GT road,I literally raised on this road...it was 20 years ago in early 2000..I vividly recall this was a single road.The trees beside the road were 500 years old from the era of mughal badshah Sher Shah. Then started the Golden Quadrilateral project under former PM Late Shri Vajpayee and the road started to spread it's wing like the international standards..The most beautiful academic life which is my school life passed through this road. With friends I used to travel, 50 paisa was the fare for 4 km..used to ride on the roof of the busses and racing...aah the sweetest memories!
