The Congress party appears to have no shame, repeatedly and deliberately using a distorted India map in its brochures and pamphlets—maps that cede parts of Jammu and Kashmir to China and Pakistan.
Now, the Tamil Nadu Congress has followed the same pattern. On one of its official X pages—specifically that of the Tamil Nadu Congress Committee Research Department—it shared a misleading map of India while promoting a party campaign.
The cover of the book titled “Jumla Government’s false facts and realities” prepared by Research Department of Tamil Nadu Congress shows Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir as part of Pakistan and Aksai Chin as part of China.
The post read, “Tomorrow, the Tamil Nadu Congress Research Department will launch the #HundredDaysHundredPlaces campaign to expose the lies of the Jumla government. The campaign will be inaugurated by Dr. A. Sellakumar M.B.B.S., Ex-M.P., Permanent Invitee of the All India Congress Working Committee.”

The attached pamphlet included a distorted representation of India’s map, which drew sharp criticism and widespread backlash.
Only recently the Congress party found itself at the center of controversy after sharing a post on its official X account on 18 June 2025, that featured a map of Pakistan including Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) — a territory legally claimed by India. The post, intended to criticize Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s foreign policy, included the caption, “Narendra Modi has ruined the foreign policy”, alongside a video depicting the disputed map.
The use of the map sparked widespread outrage, with critics accusing Congress of promoting anti-national sentiments and aligning with Pakistani narratives. Many called it a serious lapse in judgment, alleging the party was indirectly endorsing Pakistan’s territorial claims. Following intense backlash from political opponents and the public alike, the Congress deleted the post without offering an immediate explanation.
