NEW DELHI: In a major faux pas, a Pakistan government website has featured a map showing the entire state of Jammu and Kashmir — the root cause of tensions between India and Pakistan — as part of India.
The map is on the website that gives information about the status of the novel coronavirus disease in Pakistan. It features the photograph of Pakistan prime minister Imran Khan and other senior government officials along with the latest numbers of covid-19 infections in Pakistan besides other information.
But a map that shows South Asia — India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and some other countries — shows the whole of Jammu and Kashmir as part of India including areas that are under Pakistani occupation.
