Australia has withdrawn a map of India, posted on its immigration department website which omitted the border States of Jammu and Kashmir and Arunachal Pradesh, following strong protests from the Indian community in the country. The map was withdrawn on Sunday after complaints from Indian lobby grou


ps in Australia, a Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) spokeswoman was quoted by 'The Australian' newspaper as saying.
The DIAC spokeswoman said the map was sourced from the UN and mistakenly posted on the website without explanatory footnotes.

A Sydney-based NRI body, Council of Indian Australians Inc (CIA), has welcomed the decision.

"DIAC is a responsive body which takes note of the concerns of the Indian Australian community and acts promptly when needed," President of CIA Yadu Singh said.

"We, the Indian Australian community, are happy that we have been able to get a wrong righted," he said.

The body has asked the Ministry of External Affairs to deal with matters of this nature proactively.

آسٹریلیائی امیگریشن محکمہ نے بھارت کا غلط نقشہ اپنی ویب سائٹ سے ہٹالیاہے ۔ نقشے میں جموں کشمیر اور اروناچل صوبے غائب تھے ۔نقشہ دیکھنے پرایسا لگتا تھا کہ جموں کشمیر بھارت کا حصہ نہ ہوکرپاکستان کاحصہ ہو۔ امیگریشن
محکمہ کی اس غلطی کی وجہ سے آسٹریلیا میں رہ رہے بھارتیہ لوگوں میں کافی غم وغصہ تھا

This is enough for India to understand what International Community thinks about those two states, Kashmir Belongs to Pakistan and Arunachal Pradesh belongs to China. Sooner or later.............that is the Future Map.

That still will help people of those states get rid of thousands of Indian Army personnel hanging out in their street.
