Subject : Request to stop the Distortion of Indian map by Shiva Analytical (India) Ltd on calender page of July 2013
 
Dear Sirs,
 
Hindu Janajagruti Samiti is an NGO engaged Nation building, educating people on Dharma (Righteousness) and Dharmacharan (Abiding by Righteousness),awakening and uniting Indians peacefully and through lawful means. For details, please visit our website www.HinduJagruti.org

We came across the Distortion of Indian map by Shiva Analytical(India)Ltd. on the calender page of July 2013, enclosed copy of the same. There are lot of complaints received by us about this serious matter. The Map of India displayed on the calender by Shiva Analytical(India)Ltd does not show proper demarcation of Kashmir, but deletion of part of Kashmir. This is not in accordance with the Official Map of India by the Government of India. You have by this act distorted the Indian map and presented an incorrect map.

In the process it leads to hurting the National sentiments of India and committing a National offense. It is indeed surprising for such an blunder to occur on the part of Shiva Analytical(India)Ltd.

We request you to a immediately withdraw/cancel the July 2013 calender page and tender an apology for hurting National sentiments through this incorrect display of Indian map.

We request you to acknowledge the letter and inform us the action taken in the matter at the earliest.

Thanking you,

Shivaji Vatkar,
Coordinator, Hindu Janajagruti Samiti

Shri.S Kapadia,

I thank and appreciate for your quick response.Further I request all of you to take this issue seriously. A similar mistake was done by B & R Automation by showing their service centers on distorted Indian map in the Brochure.We had opened Akhand Bhrat Campaign against this foreign Co.based in Pune. They had to destroy all brochures  However meantime some Proud Indians had police complains  Due to this serious crime  M.D.of B & R Automation was arrested and case was filed against him.

Hence I am requesting you to take some immediate action to stop distortion and denigration of our Motherland Akhand Bharat.

Regards
