Why the google map is not allowing to remove duplicate of an important Govt office?

When I tried to remove a duplicate of a sub collector office which mislead me in a wrong place. (Later I found that the original place is also marked in the maps) I tried to remove the dupicate one which is showing on the middle of a round about. But google map rejected my request. So I disappointed that my favorite google map will again mislead it’s users for that sub collector office. For that kind of cases do you have any option for stong openion for a good edit.

Hi @AbhilashPillai

Removing a duplicate is not something easy to do, if you don’t follow the right procedure.

To give more detail however it would be helpful to have the links of the two places, so to give you a specific and detailed answer.

In addition Government offices are categories that are frequently blocked to avoid spam.

In that case the best option is to report the issue to the Google Maps Help Community , providing the links, for them to check and escalate the issue

Hi @AbhilashPillai

You could take a look at my notes on Merge Workflow.

If you created one of the pins that could make it even harder to fix the problem.
