Twitter Shows Jammu And Kashmir As China's Territory, Spark Outrage Online

An uproar erupted on Twitter after the social media site geotagging Jammu and Kashmir as part of China. A spokesperson said Twitter has addressed the issue.

In a tweet of Nitin Gokhale posted on October 18, Twitter tags Leh’s Hall of Fame memorial as part of the People Republic of China.

This incident causes frustration among Indian netizens as it happens amid the ongoing border tension between the two countries.

Between August 29 and September 8, Chinese troops have made three attempts to intimidate Indian soldiers along the banks of Pangong Lake. This tension has seen firearms being shot for the first time in 45 years.

On September 10, Chinese and Indian foreign ministers joined talks in Moscow and agreed on an agreement to ease the situation.

The last three months have seen weaponry, food, fuel, and supplies for winter being sent to the region to prepare for any potential conflicts.
