Answer 1

You should use $window.location.reload() from the the $window service if you want to refresh the page. It does the same thing as the reload button in your browser.
The reason you should use the $window service instead of directly accessing the native window object as per the AngularJS documentation:
While window is globally available in JavaScript, it causes
testability problems, because it is a global variable. In AngularJS we
always refer to it through the $window service, so it may be
overridden, removed or mocked for testing.
On a side note as you stated you are using the $route service, just calling $route.reload() will only reload your controllers and not your entire application.

All you need to do is this little line of Vanilia JS:
document.location.href=document.location.href
EDIT: why is this getting downvoted?

if you are using routes, then on click of Logout just route it to your login page.
Snap shot from demo:
these are my routes:
$routeProvider
.when('/login', {
controller: 'LoginController',
templateUrl: 'modules/authentication/views/login.html',
hideMenus: true
})
.when('/', {
controller: 'HomeController',
templateUrl: 'modules/home/views/home.html'
})
.otherwise({ redirectTo: '/login' });
and when i click on 'Logout' on my page it should do somehting like:
<p>Logout</a></p>
it should redirect to login page as per routes.
