New Delhi: In yet another incidence of utter disregard for Indian laws, Twitter has shown a distorted map of India on its website.
India’s truncated map can be seen on its ‘Tweep Life’ section, where Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh has been detached from India. The distorted map was first noticed by user @/thvaranam.
