Abanindranath Thakur Sarani (formerly and popularly known as Camac Street) is a one-way road in Kolkata, India. Running in the Kolkata CBD, it connects Allen Park at Park StreettoNizam PalaceatAcharya Jagadish Chandra Bose Road.[1] The road was named after William Camac, a senior merchant in the days of Lord Cornwallis and Lord Wellesley. According to Think India Think Retail 2023, Camac Street along with Park Street stands as the 5th toppest high street in India due to presence of many commercial establishments and high-end shopping destinations, with shopping malls, boutiques, restaurants and stand-alone stores.[2]
