An Indian restaurant in Glasgow has agreed to correct a map of India shown on its premises after boxer Lovlina Borgohain pointed out that the country’s Northeast region was missing. The issue drew attention after the map appeared on restaurant displays and napkins.
According to the available details, Boxing Federation of India president Ajay Singh said the owners accepted the mistake and agreed to make changes. His statement indicates the matter was raised with the restaurant after Lovlina noticed the omission.
The incident gained wider notice because Lovlina Borgohain is one of India’s best-known boxers, and her objection quickly turned a local display issue into a broader conversation about accurate representation of India’s geography. The response from the restaurant suggests the complaint was acknowledged rather than disputed.
While only limited details are available, the case highlights how maps and national symbols used in public-facing businesses can attract scrutiny, especially in international settings. In this instance, the Glasgow eatery is now expected to update the incorrect depiction after the complaint from Lovlina Borgohain and confirmation from the BFI chief.
