Let's start with a basic fact: India claims much more land than it controls.

Thus, any map of India and its neighbors makes an inherently political statement based on how it depicts their borders. The issue is particularly thorny because the border disputes are with India's great rivals: Pakistan and China.

On Thursday, a draft law reflecting India's sensitivity over maps was uploaded by the government online before being swiftly removed for reasons unknown. The draft law would define how India's international borders are drawn once and for all, and punish offenders with up to seven years in jail or fines ranging from $150,000 to $15 million. It would also require all individuals and companies producing maps in India, and all Indian citizens doing so globally, to procure a license from the government.

Rubbish.

The real culprits are China and PakiSatan. Until recently, Britain and the US screwed India in the UN on Kashmir. Now that India is stronger, they are backing off. China will eventually regret that it fostered the Paki poisonous snake. India is patiently waiting.

Are you trying to be holier than the pope ?

In China try showing Taiwan as an independent country

In Iran try showing Shatt-al-Arab waterway as Iraqi or disputed.

In palestine try showing Jerusalem as a Jewish city

I know your stock answer " Should the hindus...err India also be like them?" The answer is YES bcz India has to live amidst the bombers, killers, rapists and liars - who you have been supporting incessasantly.

My offi9ice has two maps on the wall. As you enter you will see a map of Tamil Nadu on the left and Tamil eelam on the right. Back in 2008 people ask what countries they arre. Now the regular visitors know these are the two occupied Tamil countries.

Hey Kayar,
You must be a wealthy person. Now that you have the wrong map, the Hindian govt. can make you cough up 100 crores while you languish in a Hindian jail for 7 years learning Hindi and eating malai kofta, palak paneer and chapati.
