Before independence, the road was named Kingsway in honor of the Emperor of India, George V, who had visited Delhi during the Durbar of 1911, and where he formally announced the decision to transfer the capital from Calcutta to Delhi. .
The name was similar to Kingsway in London, which opened in 1905 and was named in honor of George V's father, Edward VII.
After the independence of India, the road was given its Hindi name 'Rajpath' in place of its English designation.
This is an actual name change based on translation, as 'Rajpath' in Hindi is roughly similar in meaning to 'King's Way'.
In September 2022, Rajpath was redeveloped under the Central Vista Project and renamed as Kartavya Path.
