The terror of Lappans near Taj Mahal in Agra has not stopped yet. On the other hand, now fake guides are also prevalent to cheat the tourists. The tourism police has registered a case against fake guides hovering around the Taj Mahal. Now the police is searching for those who protected them. These fake guides, who hovered around the tourists around the Taj Mahal, used to trap the tourists. They used to sell cheap goods for expensive ones. These guides, along with scammers, extort money from tourists. Active fires near the world famous monument Taj Mahal are tainting its identity and beauty. They are forcibly surrounding the tourists coming from India and abroad and cheating them. Some guide mafias allegedly involved in this work are supporting these boys. Lapke makes the tourists buy from their pre-arranged emporium. He also sells expensive things to tourists for commission. Many tourists have also complained about this in the tourism police station.
Complaints have already been made
On this matter, Stay Guide says that all of them are legitimate guides based on the decision of Uttar Pradesh Tourism Department and High Court. Some guides at the Eastern Gate are illegally extorting money from mafia guides. Their work has been affected after the government earmarked a place for the guides at the East Gate. That’s why they also threaten the guides. More than 44 stay guides filed a complaint in the tourism police station. A case has been registered against Shahnawaz alias Shannu, Monis and three to four unknown people under serious sections. ACP Syed Arib Ahmed says that on the complaint of the victims, further action is being taken by registering a case against the accused. Even before this, tourists have made many complaints on social media about the fraud done to them in Thana Tourism. They sell bad and expensive things to them just for the commission. Let’s force them. In 2019, Aarti, a female tourist from Porbandar, had lodged a report at the tourism police station. He said that a person took me to a showroom named Handloom. They were cheated by promising to sell goods at government rates. They were sold slippers, blankets, bedsheets and expensive clothes. However, after the case was registered, the showroom operator had to return the amount.
