Vivekananda Road is a major east–west thoroughfare in Kolkata which connects Maniktala with Jorasanko. To the West of Maniktala Police Station, Maniktala Main Road becomes Vivekananda Road. The name of the road is a tribute to Swami Vivekananda's Ancestral House which is located near Bidhan Sarani Crossing.[1]
