Generally, people use Twitter as a major platform to troll others but this time it’s the turn of Twitter itself to be trolled in view of the fact that it has made a major mistake by showing Jammu & Kashmir as Pakistan & China’s regions. Yes, you read that right! This blunder is committed by none other than the very popular micro-blogging site and for the same, it’s been criticized from Indians.
Just type Jammu in location services and you’ll automatically get suggestions of its being in Pakistan. And Twitter is not done here! Type Jammu and Kashmir and you’ll get the suggestion of People’s Republic of China.

Twitter gives the facility of adding the location to its users in tweets and Twitterati may choose the current location by GPS or type the city’s name manually. And when they got to know about this blunder by Twitter, they were shocked to the core and they just could not digest it. Even though it can be an algorithm error, no clarification has been made by Twitter in this connection so far.
Quite naturally, Twitter itself was trolled for giving Jammu and Kashmir new locations and this is how users reacted over the issue:
