Another junction is formed at a roundabout where Krishna Menon Road, Tughlaq Road and Tees January Marg meet.
This road along with its adjoining roads forms the exclusive V.V.I.P zone where India's topmost powerful politicians live which includes cabinet ministers, senior MPs. It is yards away from the Parliament and the Presidential Palace.
Controversy
In 2016 General Vijay Kumar Singh demanded that Akbar Road be renamed as Maharana Pratap Singh Road, claiming that the Mughal Emperor of Persian Chagatai Turco-Mongolic descent was an "invader". In 2018, the signage was defaced and a banner proclaiming "Maharana Pratap Singh Road" was pasted over the signage. An FIR was registered by the police.
