Incorrect administrative level information?

Hello,

I'm trying to figure out how to correct some erroneous administrative information for a location.

In this case, the city is Bhuj, which is in the state of Gujarat.

However, the Nominatim API places Bhuj in an incorrect state:

https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/sea … ry_code=in
""Kachchh"" is not a state in India.

How does one correct the state to Gujarat? I have used the editor before, but there is no obvious way to correct the info int he resulting node.

Are you sure that OSM data is wrong?

See https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/ui/ … tml?q=bhuj ... and select "details" there.

Re: Incorrect administrative level information?

The data looks correct. There's something wrong on the page you linked.
Bhuj is in:
- Bhuj Taluka - Level 6
- Kutch District - Level 5
- Gujarat - Level 4
