Benares in a downpour

Hi, You might want to verify this one. The text on the sign boards is written in Gujarati. Which might mean that the photo could be from Gujarat state instead of Banaras. There are two sign boards where I can see the script in in Gujarati language.
Sajid Saiyed said:
The big dark black signboard at the very top left reads the name as "Premchand Sankalchand" and most probably its Ahmedabad.
The National Archives UK said:
Very interesting. But the paperwork is absolutely clear that it is Benares (or Varanasi we should perhaps say). This image is one of a series of photos that Beaton took in the city documenting its temples, street sellers and university.
Sajid Saiyed said:
ok :) Could be. Because of the signboard language I made that guess. Maybe some Gujarati businessman had settled in Varanasi :)
Anusha Yadav said:
Yes But I doubt they would put signage in a language which their customers from the north didn't understand. They are gujus remember, a very keen business mind. Unlikely they would make a mistake like that. I agree. this isn't Benaras. And Camels are not particularly found in Benaras. Unless they are amusement and circus animals. a few here and there...In gujarat yes. Camels abound.
