Re: Jernaili Sadak (GT Road) - Footsteps of History from Peshawer to Calcutta
It is still the most prominent road, NH2 crosses every major city of the plains and the most densely populated area of India, and many roads coming from interior roads merge in into NH2 so as to get connection to the main cities of the region. Road between Kannauj to Kanpur run parallel to railway line so it is fun to see train running parallel but not intersecting even once. many towns and cities are on the side of city, it is still the most prominent road in the plains.
NH1 connects Delhi to Amritsar and then extended to jammu, Srinagar and finally reaches leh, it is most strategically important route connecting Jammu to Laddakh
