भारत का पहला हाइवे आज भी जिन्दा है | अनसुना इतिहास | The Untold History of India’s First Road

India’s first highway — a road so ancient that it has witnessed the rise and fall of empires, from the Mauryan dynasty to the British Raj. Known today as the Grand Trunk Road (GT Road), this 2,500-year-old route is not just a road — it’s the living spine of India’s history. In this episode, we uncover the untold story of India’s first highway — how it was first built by Chandragupta Maurya, expanded by Sher Shah Suri, and later modernized by the British. This single road connected the great cities of Peshawar, Delhi, and Kolkata, making it the heart of trade, politics, and culture across South Asia. From the footsteps of Ashokan messengers to the marching armies of the Mughals and the East India Company, this road has carried stories of conquest, commerce, and civilization. Even today, the Grand Trunk Road continues to thrive as NH-44, connecting India’s past with its present. You’ll discover how Sher Shah Suri’s vision turned this ancient path into a well-planned infrastructure project — complete with sarais (rest houses), trees for shade, and milestones — centuries before the modern concept of highways existed. Join us as we explore how this road shaped Indian civilization — and how its legacy still runs beneath the wheels of modern India. #indianhistory #history #gtroad #highway Contact us at : [email protected] 🔗𝗧𝗼 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲, 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁: For regular videos, updates & more, subscribe to our YouTube channel.
