### Problem

I have identified an issue with the current map representation of India . The map incorrectly depicts the boundaries of India, showing parts of the country's territory within another country. This incorrect representation can lead to confusion and misinterpretation of geographical information.

### Description

To rectify this issue, I propose the following changes to the map:

Correcting the boundary lines: The existing boundary lines need to be adjusted to accurately reflect the internationally recognized borders of India. This will ensure that the map aligns with the ground reality and avoids any misrepresentation.
OR
Identify the disputed boundary regions: Conduct thorough research to determine the specific disputed areas and their respective boundaries.
Modify the map: Adjust the map to include the disputed boundary regions, clearly distinguishing them from the internationally recognized borders. This can be achieved through the use of dashed or dotted lines or alternative visual indicators.
