Narmadapuram's Identity Crisis: 'Hoshangabad' Still Dominates Road Signs
•Despite the official name change to Narmadapuram four years ago, 'Hoshangabad' persists on government road signs.
•The name change was formalized on February 7, 2022, affecting government papers, railway stations, and office nameplates.
•Commuters, including local residents and truck drivers, face significant confusion due to conflicting information from Google and physical signboards.
•Truck drivers highlight the particular difficulty at night, often leading to detours of several kilometers.
•Locals urge officials to update the signboards promptly to prevent people from getting lost and to resolve the ongoing confusion.
