No, the Grand Trunk Road was not built by Samrat Ashok. It has a history that dates back to ancient times and was developed over centuries, with significant contributions from various rulers, including Sher Shah Suri in the 16th century. Ashok, who ruled in the 3rd century BCE, is known for his contributions to Buddhism and the spread of its teachings rather than for infrastructure like the Grand Trunk Road.
