The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- Boxer Lovlina Borgohain noticed during a visit to Glasgow restaurant Mister Singh's India that the map of India in its branding left out the Northeast, and she politely raised the issue with the management.
- The Indian embassy in Scotland said it noted the incorrect map 'with concern', raised the matter with the restaurant, and was assured corrective action was being taken.
- The restaurant apologised 'unequivocally', promised to change its logo, and withdrew items showing the wrong map, though its Instagram page appeared to have been deleted soon after.
- The episode followed the Indian boxing contingent's celebratory dinner after winning ten medals at the Commonwealth Games, and Assam ministers publicly praised Borgohain for standing up for the nation's integrity.
What to watch next
- Whether the restaurant follows through on changing its logo to a correct map of India
- Restoration or permanent deletion of the restaurant's Instagram account
- Any further response from the Indian embassy confirming the corrective action is complete
