hows this:

The frontiers depicted on this map come from the OSM database and differ 
 from the official government map of India. We are making efforts to depict
  the official boundaries. Until such time please consult the authorities before
   using those parts of the map which vary from the official boundaries. Users 
may 
   note that since this map is editably by anyone, at times there will be 
inaccuracies 
   caused by spammers and other anti-social elements.
