Pusa Road (Sadhu Vaswani Marg) is an arterial road and one of the major roads of New Delhi, India. Several prominent educational institutions and hospitals are located on the road. The neighbourhoods of Karol Bagh and Rajendra Nagar are respectively on the northern and southern sides of the road. It forms part of the Patel Road - Pusa Road - Link Road corridor that connects West Delhi to Connaught Place. This is one of the busiest arterial routes in the city; according to a 2014 estimate, it carries 170,000 vehicles per day.[1]
Pusa Road takes its name from the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI), formerly known as Pusa Institute, which is located at the western end of the road.[2] Officially, the name was changed some years ago to Sadhu Vaswani Marg, but the old name continues to be in use.
Starting from the roundabout next to the IARI campus (Pusa Roundabout), where it meets with Patel Road, K. S. Krishnan Marg and Shankar Road, Pusa Road extends eastward, ending at a large roundabout where it meets with Arya Samaj Road, Faiz Road, Link Road and Vandemataram Marg. The Blue Line of the Delhi Metro runs overhead along the entire length of the road. Two metro stations - Rajendra Place and Karol Bagh - are located on Pusa Road.
