Pakistan's atlas shows Pakistan-occupied Kashmir as Indian land

A new school atlas published by the government of Pakistan's Punjab province has shown Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and the Gilgit-Baltistan region as Indian territories. The education authorities rushed to recall the atlas from all elementary and high school libraries of Punjab. The government of chief minister Shahbaz Sharif has had to face criticism from academicians. Over 15,000 copies of the atlas had been delivered to school libraries so far. The education department said it would take action against all those responsible for printing, approving and distributing the atlas.
