New Delhi, October 19:
A day after stirring a storm on social media for showing Jammu and Kashmir as China’s territory, Twitter on Monday called it a ‘technical issue’ and confirmed that it has resolved the problem now. In its clarification, the micro-blogging giant stressed that it “respects” the sensitivities around the issue and has launched an internal investigation in the matter.
In an official statement, a Twitter spokesperson said, “We became aware of this technical issue on Sunday, and understand and respect the sensitivities around it. Teams have worked swiftly to investigate and resolve the concerned geotag issue.”
Twitter’s clarification has come after its location tag in a live broadcast showed Jammu and Kashmir as part of China.
