Bhoj Open University's Ex-Vice Chancellor Urges Reinstatement of 'Raja Bhoj Marg' Signboards

Bhopal, July 10 (PTI) — Kamlakar Singh, the former Vice-Chancellor of Bhoj Open University in Bhopal, has issued a call for the restoration of signboards identifying Kolar Road as 'Raja Bhoj Marg' in the city. Singh has reached out to the Madhya Pradesh government via letter, urging the reinstallation of nameplates and signboards as per a decision made in 2008. Raja Bhoj was a king from the Paramara dynasty reigning over the Malwa region between 1010 and his demise in 1055. During his tenure as Vice-Chancellor, Singh had requested the renaming of Kolar Road to 'Raja Bhoj Marg' in a letter to the Governor, a proposal which was approved. However, since Kolar Road's expansion into a six-lane thoroughfare, the name 'Raja Bhoj' has disappeared from view, with signboards either damaged or removed.
