This banner warning people of wrong route to Baga Beach has Twitterati in splits
Now, the poster hung to warn people is going viral on Twitter and has left many in splits. 'You are fooled by Google Maps. This road doesn't take you to Baga Beach!!! [sic]' the banner warned tech-savvy visitors taking a road following GPS apps on their mobiles. But it doesn't stop by just warning them, it guides them back to the correct route for them to reach their destination. 'Turn back and take a left turn, Baga is 1 km from here,' the resourceful sign added. Google India's poetic response to a user about map features has tweeple in splits Twitter user, Sumanth Raj Urs, shared the funny photo on the microblogging site tagging Google Maps and asking,' Hahaha. @googlemaps what's the route to Baga beach? '
