Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing
this
to report about information which has been printed incorrectly in the latest edition of the travel magazine The World All About Knowledge.
In this
time’s edition, your main focus was on Indian history, while
I was reading it I came to know about misinformation about a monument in my City named Gandhi Ashram. As per the article, it mentioned the place was built by The Government of India, but in fact, the Ashram was established by Mahatma Gandhi himself in 1917 during his visit to Ahmedabad at the time of the freedom struggle.
As you are an internationally reputed magazine publisher it becomes your moral responsibility to provide the right information to your reader. It is very easy to misinterpret the news by unfamiliar persons around the world. I was a little surprised that the facts have not been confirmed by your team during proofreading.
I would like the magazine to publish correct information in the next edition along with
an apology to the readers. In the future, it will be really appreciated, if your team processes with some basic research before printing any articles.
Your co-operation in the matter is highly appreciated.
Yours faithfully,
