UK street likely to be renamed after Guru Nanak

New Delhi/UNI: After Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, now it is Guru Nanak - who is set to be 'revered' by a foreign country.

According to reports, a road in Southall in the United Kingdom, where the largest Gurudwara - 'Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha' - in western Europe sits, likely to be renamed as 'Guru Nanak Road'.

The reports said, that the local council is now reviewing colonialist connections to all street names and statues in its area.

The Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha is situated on Havelock Road in Southall, a road named after British General Henry Havelock.

Informatively, on May 8 - the 159th birth anniversary of Tagore - Israel paid him a heartwarming tribute by naming a street after him in Tel Aviv.
