The external affairs ministry on Thursday said the goof-up by Twitter in its location-tagging service that showed Jammu as part of Pakistan and J&K as being in China will be taken up with the micro-blogging site.
"I am sure this will be taken up," spokesperson in the MEA Vikas Swarup told reporters.
Creating a flutter among its own users, popular social media platform Twitter on Thursday made a faux pas in its location-tagging service that showed Jammu as part of Pakistan and J&K as being in China.
When contacted, a Twitter spokesperson did not give any immediate comment. However, sources in the company said the problem has been identified and it would be resolved soon.
While posting a new tweet, Twitter gives an option to the user to tag his or her location, wherein the microblogging site was on Thursday found to be showing Jammu as being part of Pakistan. Besides, a user seeking to tag Jammu and Kashmir as a location was being shown the option of this place being in 'People's Republic of China'.
A number of Twitter users criticised Twitter over the issue.
