A village name board in Mathura's Akbarpur has been vandalized and altered to read 'Raghuwarpur', sparking a police investigation. The incident is linked to a remark made by a prominent priest during a recent padyatra, where he suggested renaming the village. While the priest clarified that his comment was meant for the government, unknown individuals have taken matters into their own hands. The Uttar Pradesh Tourism Department signboard was defaced with black paint, and the word 'Akbarpur' was replaced with 'Raghuwarpur'. Authorities have launched an inquiry and vowed to restore the signboard to its original state. The perpetrators will be identified and face legal action, officials assured.
