    "abstract": "We comment on the work of Tai L Chow, Eur. J. Phys. 18, 467 (1997). By\nconsidering the Lagrangians which are uniquely defined only to within an\nadditive total time derivative of a function of co-ordinates and time the\nauthor has tried to show that the gauge transformations which relate these\nLagrangians are canonical transformations. He has obtained the right conclusion\nonly by using wrong canonical equations and the entire exercise has hence\nbecome erroneous and inconclusive. By using the definition of canonical\ntransformation through Poisson brackets we prove that the above gauge\ntransformations are canonical transformations.",
