Dharwad: Authorities often make spelling mistakes while writing street names, gardens, circles and areas on the signboard.
People often make fun of them when they pass and pay attention to them, but only a few intend to take him to the authorities notice, even though they barely respond or act.
However, Manjunath Hiratha, 45, painter artists and clay in Dharwad, have developed the habit of carrying a paint box and brush on his motorcycle.
Every time he saw a mistake on a signboard, he only parked his motorcycle there and traced it.
He corrected errors on three signs during locking in Dharwad, and had appealed to the public to remind him of the error found on the signboard, through his Facebook account.
Hirathou told Tii that he saw a post on social media, regarding the wrong spelling on a signboard on April 19.
“The authorities have written Veteran Bendre poets as Bendra on the board.
As soon as I see it, I can’t sit at home calmly.
Because I have two decades of experience working as a sign artist, I take a color box and brush and go to place and correct spelling.
Then I posted the same in Dharwad bonds, Facebook pages, and appealed to netizens to bring mistakes like me to fix it.
After posting, I got a warning about the error on another sign on RC Hirathan Marg.
Hiremath has become a heeremation Kannada.
If the area name is wrong, it can be accepted to a certain extent, but it is not acceptable if the names of the big souls are spelled wrong, “he said.
Congratulations on his initiative, Prakash Udikeri, Secretary General, Karnataka Vidyavardhaka Sangh, Dharwad, said that when the big soul names were spelled incorrectly, it was a noble service for land and Kannada, in correcting them.
