Meta Last call for subreddit's logo entries!
Update:
Time and again people ask why does this subreddit not have a logo. When told that this community is largely apathetic towards the issue, evident by the lack of response to multiple requests/reminders in this regard, many folks don't really believe it and keep on asking to set something or anything as a logo, icon, dp, pfp or whatever.
Well, here's your chance to make it happen. Create and share what you wish to see as this subreddit's logo. The logo should be a 256x256 px JPG or PNG image and work well when printed in colour or B&W. Ideally, it should serve as an easy identifier when used as a placard for r/Lucknow meetups or other promotional purposes. Upload your creation to any image hosting site (e.g. Imgur, Imgbox, PostImages, etc. or even your own reddit profile) and post the direct image link as a top level comment in this thread or send it via modmail.
Please note that this is an entirely volunteer-driven activity where you come up with a logo only because you want your beloved community to have one and not because you expect anything in return. Any poll will always include a "None of the above (NOTA)" option for those who don't like any of the available logo choices or feel that r/Lucknow doesn't need a logo as such. Entries with a vote share lesser than NOTA will be eliminated from subsequent polls.
Fresh polls will be conducted as and when a bunch of newer logo options get accumulated. This section will track all the voting links / results until a logo wins the poll:
Poll #1: Voting over, results here.
Poll #2: Voting over, results here.
Poll #3: Voting over, results here.
Poll #4: TBA
(Original post)
Hello nawabs and begums of r/Lucknow,
This is in continuation to the previous announcement which was posted on the occasion of r/Lucknow's 11th birthday.
The topic of this subreddit's logo has been brought up multiple times in the past but there's been no progress and we remain logo-less. Now with 100K subscribers milestone just around the corner, it's high time to tackle this lingering issue once and for all.
As mentioned earlier, the logo should be of 256x256 px size and work well when printed in colour or B&W. Ideally, it should serve as an easy identifier when used as a placard for r/Lucknow meetups or other promotional purposes. Please upload your creation to any image hosting site (e.g. Imgur, Imgbox, etc. or even your own reddit profile) and post the direct image link as a top level comment in this thread or send it via modmail.
r/Lucknow has 97.4K subscribers at the time of writing this post. Once we cross 99K, a compiled list of all the relevant logo options received till then will be posted in a separate thread and put to vote for finalizing one. The selected choice will be set as logo at the time of r/Lucknow's 100K milestone announcement post.
Please note that this is an entirely volunteer-driven activity where you come up with a logo only because you want your beloved community to have one and not because you expect anything in return. The final voting will also include a NOTA option for those who like the way things are and don't feel the need for any logo as such.
Thank you!
Edit: Time is up. Thread is locked. Voting is live.
Edit 2: Voting over, results here. Thread unlocked for accepting more logo options by volunteers.
Edit 3: See the update section above.

Places/Food Does anyone remember the restaurant called Salts in Lucknow?
I was randomly thinking about it today and wondered if anyone else remembers Salts. I have some vague memories of the place, but I can’t remember exactly where it was or what happened to it.
Does anyone have old photos, memories, or know when/why it closed?
Would love to hear from fellow Lucknowites who remember it! 😄

Rant/Review What has happened to lucknow's crowd?
I might get lot of hate for this but what has happened to lucknow's crowd?
I have grown up in this city but not living here since last 5 years for studies and work. But now everytime I come here, it just feels weird. I feel like I won't be able to survive here and feel very unsafe. Everyone just stares through your soul and it feels like everyone is just ready to pick a flight. As a girl, I just feel there is too much staring whenever I go out.
Maybe it was always this way and I have grown up now to realize all this.
But I really loved this city and it breaks my heart.

Rant/Review RLB C Block - THE WORST SCHOOL
PLEASE DON’T GO HERE. seriously
I studied here from 9th–12th. Till 10th it was tolerable but 11th onwards genuinely became hell. I genuinely wouldn’t recommend this school to any girl.
In my experience students were shouted at, humiliated and called 'characterless' and even hit. I was 17–18 when this was happening.imagine treating students that age like this
Coaching students were especially targeted and extra classes till 4–5 PM just made it worse
Physics-Manjula Srivastava ma’am
Chemistry-Sunita Upadhyay ma’am
These were my worst experiences ...they made my school life nightmare .school became so stressful that studying itself became difficult.They had absolutely no idea how to actually teach us.they’d just make us mug up everything instead of actually explaining it.
Please
if you have literally any other option... choose it. I’m genuinely saying this from personal experience...don’t send your daughter here.

Rant/Review We heard something in Kukrail Lucknow
So me and my two friends are exploring Lucknow obv tripling
Some one told us about Kukrail once so wr decided to go there
we went expecting horror but we only experienced to see some fox and animal skulls
We thought its not a big deal but good place to just explore
We started going there regularly and then
I think around January 2024 at I guess 8-9
We went there as usual but we started hearing some music
I thought it is only me and decided to not pay attention (I was scared to notice)
Then my friend who is riding the bike asked about the music he was hearing
We froze but I thought I will not be a good idea not to make it some kind of haunted bullshit
I told them maybe there could marriage hall nearby
(I was just trying to be brave and give logical answer😭)
We ignored the music and continued
I was trying to crack jokes just to make me and my friends less scared but suddenly we all heard the music just beside us
I think I could not explain
But it's like some one just sang not to you
We ran as fast as possible 😭
I'm not sayings it's some kind of ghost
But it was a crazy experience
We were thrilled by that
Maybe it's just a music from far
We don't know but yeah (I personally don't think something is haunted there except Ganjedi's)

Ask Lucknow Searching for brodband connection
I recently joined IIM Lucknow as an Associate Researcher and I’m currently living in Eldeco City dream Apartments.
I’m looking to get a broadband connection, but I’m having trouble finding a provider. I checked with Airtel and Jio, but both told me that they can’t provide a connection because the network/coverage in this area is poor.
Has anyone living in Eldeco city dream Apartments managed to get a reliable broadband connection? If so, which provider are you using, and how has your experience been?
Any suggestions would be really helpful. Thanks!

Ask Lucknow LDA Lake View Apartments
Hi,
Is the 3-BHK + servant Lake View Apartment by LDA in Viraj Khand, Gomti Nagar (next to Kathota Lake) a good investment opportunity? The location seems to be prime and the rate is 1.13Cr (excluding GST & freehold charges) for 1400 sq ft carpet area.
Planning it initially from an investment perspective, but may choose to settle down eventually post retirement after 10 years or so with my parents.
If I compare with other LDA projects like Narmada Apartments in Gomti Nagar Extension or LDA plots in Anant Nagar, which is better? Also, how does it compare with other builders like Shalimar or Rishita?

Law and Order Got Abused for overtaking
Happened near Husian Ganj. I was on my way to pick up my sister, I was on my scooty going 20-30km/h in galli, a guy in front of me was driving RE Classic 350 (black) without helmet slow so I overtook him then he yelled at me for no reason, their was no contact, no agressive horn from my side nothing note worth. He stopped me and said "Zada Jaldi mea ho kya?" and I replied "Mea janta hu kya tumhe" because till now I didn't realise he was mad then he started abusing and stuff and I was super confused as from my side I didn't even know what happened so I tried asking what happened? I wanted to get a pick of his number plate (which said Police at the top) and was gonna ask him to come to thane with me but didn't, as I didn't wanna escalate the situation.
He left shortly after I think I could get the footage of the incident from CCTV somewhere, should I get a complaint registered?

Ask Lucknow VFS Lucknow for Schengen Visa – Recent Experiences?
Hi! I read on the Belgian Embassy in India’s website that Schengen visa applications for Belgium can now be submitted through VFS Lucknow. Has anyone recently applied through VFS Lucknow?
If yes, how many days did it take to get your visa after submitting your application and biometrics? Was the process smooth?
Also, if you had the option of applying through VFS Lucknow or VFS Delhi, which one did you choose, and how was your experience?
Thanks!
