Government or 'gobornment' ?

Please write in Bangla the word government, instead of gobornment. Please look into the previous secondary school certificates and mark-sheets and various class mark-sheets issued by the Dhaka Board and schools.

The Government Laboratory High School is one of the top schools in Bangladesh. The school achieved unbelievable success in the SSC examinations in the past years, earned name and fame, and was crowned with glory. But there is a gross (spelling) mistake on the main signboard of the school at the main gate. The word should be written 'government' in Bangla, and not 'gobornment' on the main signboard, that sounds bad to pronounce and ugly to see. If the word 'gobornment' were correct, we should write 'gobornor', instead of governor in Bangla.

The school authorities should respond to the matter.
