Twitter India official Manis Maheshwari has been booked by Uttar Pradesh police over a speaker displaying an improper map of India on its website, ANI reported on Tuesday.

 The FIR was registered with the Bajrang Dal leader's complaint in Bulandsahr, media reports said, adding that the case was registered under section 505 (2) of the IPC and section 74 of the IT (Amendment) Act, 2008.

The case is about a controversial Indian map that appeared earlier in the Twitter service section under the heading 'Tweep Life'. It was revealed early last weekend that the map showed Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh, as a separate country. After the distorted map was scrutinized by the public last weekend, there were widespread suspicions by netizens, and even though Twitter removed the controversial map on Monday night, it was suggested that strict action be taken against the microblogging platform.

Twitter is facing major problems in India between its stance and the central government in line with the new IT laws in the country. Uttar Pradesh police had earlier summoned Maheshwari for questioning over a video that was allegedly misleading an elderly Muslim man who was attacked in the Loni area of ​​Gaziabad district. The company was also given a second notice by the Ghaziabad police to demand "account details" of the alleged police suspects for posting and advertising the video.

Maheshwari, the head of Twitter India, on Monday filed a complaint pending an appeal by UP police over the release he received from the Karnataka high court in connection with the investigation into the Loni attack. With his caveat, a Twitter official appealed to the high court to hear him before issuing any order and to provide him with a copy of any application sent by Uttar Pradesh police.

Meanwhile, Twitter on Monday re-appointed its US-based legal policy chief Jeremy Kessel as the new appeals officer in India. The laws, however, require an Indian person in this role.
