Uttarakhand: Before Pushkar Singh Dhami took the oath as the chief minister of Uttarakhand on Sunday, an old tweet of 2015 has tumbled out creating an uproar on Twitter to much embarrassment of the new chief minister. A day before the Independence Day of 2015, the BJP leader had posted a map of India, which at that time might have escaped attention, but now as that BJP leader is going to be at the helms of affairs in Uttarakhand, Twitter users have started pointing out that the map has several things wrong.
Here is the tweet, the screenshot of which is being shared on social media platforms now. Many social media users have been quick to point out that the map is not a correct representation of India and it has no regard for international borders as well. The map of 'Akhand Bharat' tweeted by Dhami includes neighbouring countries while India's map is not correct as it does not show Ladakh and Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir, Twitter users said. The saffron map with a caption of "Akhand Bharat -- the dream of every Rshtrabhakt," has the image of Bharat Mata at its centre.
