Dear Sir, I am writing

this

letter to bring to your notice the error I came across, issued in

this

week's article section 'The wonders', Hindustan Times.

Firstly

, it was unbelievable that a newspaper like yours which have an international viewership can make a mistake like

this

.

Secondly

, you must proofread the matter yet to be issued and make correct editing using authentic artefacts before giving the same for publishing. In

this

week's ,issue there was a statement giving information about the lakes of my city, Bhopal. I was born and brought up in

this

city and I have seen it changing and developing over time immemorial. I am very thorough with the history of

this

city and its people. The paragraph stated incorrect details about the Upper Lake being a natural water body in the centre of Bhopal.

Moreover

, confirming it by giving some false pieces of evidence of the same. But in reality, the Upper Lake is one of the few man-made lakes in the world which came into existence through the tireless efforts of the king ruling central India in the 18th century, Raja Bhoj. I kindly request you to make corrections in the given details and publish the right version in the

next

week's issue with an addition of an apology alongside.

This

is the least that can be done. Yours Sincerely Fidan Durrani
