Google Maps and the not-so-well defined India

I couldn' believe my eyes when i first had a look, i thought it was some kind of hoax email... but i bet it much more a serious issue....

Google Maps has 3 definitions of india ...well.. its the boundary matter

1. India with Arunachal Pradesh -India Version
2.India without Arunachal Pradesh = China with Arunachal Pradesh -China Version
3. India without Arunachal Pradesh = China without Arunachal Pradesh = Arunachal Pradesh in Dispute - US Version


Google these links for India and check out the boundaries...

It sounds aweful and am already fuming... Google is playing a big time game... What a shame...

oh my god! The same thing with the north-eat Kashmir - the map seems to be different between Indian and Chinese version.
