Distortion of Indian Map by National Geoagraphics

Appeal to devout Hindus

It has been observed that National Geographic is showcasing distorted Indian Map on its website and it has been also observed that many countries like USA, UK, Australia are following this map. In this map, Arunachal Pradesh and Kashmir are not shown as part of India. It is nothing but the insult of India and billions of Indians. It is the duty of all the Indians to protest lawfully against National Geographic so that it stops distortion of Indian Map immediately and it also informs this correction to the countries following its map. Also it should render unconditional apology to all the Indians for hurting their national sentiments.

Detailed News about the distortion of Indian Map by National Geographic

New Delhi: BJP on Monday asked the government to take up the issue of Arunachal Pradesh being shown as part of China, and Kashmir as belonging to Pakistan in maps published by the National Geographic.

"When a Parliamentary forum led by Speaker Meira Kumar visited Westminster in London recently, it saw a global map in the British Parliament showing Arunachal Pradesh as part of China and a part of Kashmir as part of Pakistan though it is represented by an MP in our Parliament," BJP spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy said.

On enquiries, the delegation - of which Rudy was also a member - was informed that the map had been made by National Geographic. "We lodged a protest with the authorities there," he said.

China has indulged in repeated incursions into Arunachal Pradesh and even refused to accept it as part of Indian territory. Similarly, Kashmir has been considered a contentious region by some organisations abroad which have depicted it as part of Pakistan.

The BJP MP maintained that earlier when he had visited Japan as part of a similar delegation, he had come across a similar map in one of the Japanese ministries. Congress MP Manish Tewari was with him, Rudy said.

"Now it has come to light that in Australia also a similar map is in use in government departments. We have pointed this out to the ministry of external affairs but the Government of India has failed to respond or to act on it," Rudy said.

He maintained that all these maps have been printed by National Geographic and the government should take up the matter immediately with that organisation.

India's map is the most graceful map amongst the other countries in the world. Please do not disgrace our motherland by cutting its hands. India has a crown called Kashmir and two hands - east and west states and feet has the water of Arabian sea. STOP distorting our nation.

The problem is not with National Geographic. Problem is with us because we support Muslims. Mohammedans from PAK & BAN are evacuating Hindus from Kashmir / AP. We need to take care of those problems. Once they are managed, we can easily reclaim those places back.

Dear HJS admin, I request you to please file a campaign to burn Quran. Imraan Firasat done that in Spain and we need to do so in IND. Please do that. Muslims must be taught in their own language

Sign the petition "A call to all patriots" at indianvoice org. Please promote & run further campaigns to fight against PAK / BAN. They both desperately want Islamization of India.

National geography channel is owned by American Gornv. and you all know america always opposed India on several issues and also supported pakistan by their heart. So this channel is making such nonsense things to show us that we have right to do anything with you country. I think that we should ban such channels,websites,organizations for respecting our country as they are collecting lot of money from Indian market.
