He filed a fresh complaint with the tourism department and the PWD, seeking removal of such hoardings Noted historian Yogesh Praveen says spelling errors in the names of historical structures are no less than a mockery of Lucknow’s history.

› The department concerned should take stern action against the officials who seem least aware of the heritage structures in the state capital.

YOGESH PRAVEEN, historian

It’s really awful to see such spelling errors, especially on the sign boards of the tourism department. It reflects the schooling and callous approach of tourism department officers towards the city’s rich heritage.”
