A road in Hyderabad's high-tech district has been officially renamed Donald Trump Avenue, making the former US president one of the few American leaders to have a street named after him abroad and triggering a mix of diplomatic interest and online mockery. The stretch, beside the new US Consulate, was rebadged by the Telangana government as part of an anniversary celebration of US independence and was swiftly hailed by Mr Trump on Truth Social.
The newly named Donald Trump Avenue, located near the US Consulate in Hyderabad, drew immediate attention after Trump publicly celebrated the gesture on Truth Social. While supporters framed the move as a symbol of deepening India-US ties, critics questioned the timing, given Trump's recent amplification of remarks describing India as a 'hellhole.'
