New Delhi: Twitter India chief Manish Maheshwari has been named in an FIR in Uttar Pradesh over an incorrect map of India. This is the second FIR against Twitter this month in UP as troubles grow for the social media giant in the country.

Along with Twitter, journalists Rana Ayyub and Saba Naqvi, and some Congress leaders were also named in the case.

Hours after courting controversy by displaying a distorted map of India, showing Jammu-Kashmir and Ladakh as a separate country, Twitter on Monday got rid of a controversial map of India.

On late Monday night, the global map which earlier appeared on the career section of Twitter website under the header ‘Tweep Life’ was removed completely from the web page.
