How to get route name from action

I am using MapMvcAttributeRoutes to set routes in my MVC application. Now I have a doubt is it possible to access a route name from action Index?

[HttpGet]
[Route("{language}/Home/Index", Name = "Home.Index")]
public ActionResult Index()
{
      //access route name Home.Index here?
      return View();
}

I wanted to say I tried something, but do not relly know where to start. I did some researching in forums and SO, but did not find any valid answer.

EDIT

In order to fully understand my question here is an example. Each view contains a partial view (header) that generates links for all languages of a current view. Some actions/views use AttributeRoutes and some use default routing from routeconfig. How can I decide when to call RouteUrl and when to call Action?

Why do you need the route name? – Vsevolod Goloviznin Dec 10 '14 at 13:51
So I can generate RouteUrl for all available languages – mko Dec 10 '14 at 13:54
You can do Url.Action to generate the url, otherwise check this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/363211/how-can-i-get-the-route-name-in-controller-in-asp-net-mvc – Vsevolod Goloviznin Dec 10 '14 at 13:56
Is this possible with MapMvcAttributeRoutes? – mko Dec 10 '14 at 13:58
I think Url.Action will handle MapMvcAttributes, but you can check as for the question link, I'm no sure – Vsevolod Goloviznin Dec 10 '14 at 14:15
I have update my question, please check it – mko Dec 10 '14 at 14:19
