An IP using persom keeps adding back that G. T. Road was built by Mauryan Empire when actual research shows it was present long before that. The sources he uses are nothing more than travel authors like Roads and Kingdoms or National Geographic using another travel writer Salman Rashid who is not a historian but a fellow of Royal Geographical Society. How can anyone consider them an expert on topic of history? SainiRori (talk) 09:24, 15 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Needs a map

This article really needs a map! A number exist online but they're all privately done - anybody know of a public source we could use? - DavidWBrooks (talk) 17:24, 14 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Agreed. The highway map of India is inadequate. It does not show the cities, or the course, and it leaves out the sections of the road in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh. I made a map using OSM today that should be a reasonable replacement. Lucas(CA2) (talk) 19:56, 5 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

The Grand Trunk Road, a national highway, is one of the oldest road routes in India. It runs through Haora to Pakistan and is the main route connecting the city with northern India. National highways also connect Kolkata with the west coast of India, the northern part of West Bengal and the frontier with Bangladesh. 45.117.64.206 (talk) 08:45, 27 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
