LONDON: The Oxford University Press (OUP) apologised on Friday for offending the people of Bangalore with errors in one of its dictionaries, saying it was freezing warehouse sales and making corrections.
The 2005 edition of the Oxford Concise Dictionary of World Place Names reportedly made mistakes about the language and history of Bangalore.
The OUP said it was "deeply sorry" for the errors.
"We have frozen stock and stopped selling from our warehouses, and will be pulping the remaining copies," it said in a statement.
Well, correcting the mistake on Wikipedia would have been way much easier! One point for us!
