View In AppCongress Presidential Election: Congress Presidential candidate Shashi Tharoor on Friday landed in controversy as the election manifesto shared by him showed a "distorted map of India". Gone. In the map shared by him, parts of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were left out. In his manifesto, he has talked of 'decentralization of the organisation'. When Tharoor, who was in the race for the post of president of the country's oldest party, rectified the mistake after showing the wrong map of India, Tharoor rectified the mistake by replacing it with the correct map of India in his election manifesto. This is not the first time that a Lok Sabha MP has shared a distorted map of India. Earlier in 2019, Tharoor shared a 'distorted' map of India on Twitter. The northernmost region of the country was missing from the map shared by the Congress leader. At that time also there was a ruckus over the map shared by him. Subsequently, in December 2019, he shared the cover of a booklet about the Kerala Congress's protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). He later deleted the tweet and rectified his mistake.
