Donald Trump Thanks India After Hyderabad Road Named in His Honour

US President Donald Trump has thanked India after a road in Hyderabad was officially named after him. Calling it an “unprecedented honour”, Trump expressed his gratitude through his social media platform Truth Social and also shared a picture from the inauguration ceremony.

The road, located in Nanakramguda, Hyderabad, was officially inaugurated on Wednesday, June 24, by the Telangana government. The road has been named after the American President as a symbolic recognition of the growing partnership between India and the United States.

US Ambassador Sergio Gor was present at the inauguration ceremony and highlighted Hyderabad’s increasing role in strengthening India-US relations. He said the city has become an important centre for bilateral cooperation and global investments.

The newly named road is located near the US Consulate and was earlier known as the American Consulate Road. The area is also home to offices of several major international technology companies, including Microsoft, Google and Amazon.

Officials described the move as a symbolic gesture reflecting Hyderabad’s growing international importance and the strong ties between India and the United States.

Telangana Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka and US Ambassador Sergio Gor formally inaugurated the road named after Donald Trump. Reacting to the honour, Trump said that no previous American President had received such recognition and described himself as the first US President to be honoured in this manner.

The proposal to rename the road was reportedly introduced by Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy in December 2025. The decision was taken to highlight Hyderabad’s expanding global identity and its contribution to strengthening India-US relations.

The development comes at a time when Hyderabad continues to emerge as a major hub for technology, business and international collaboration.
