An Indian restaurant in Glasgow sparked controversy after boxer Lovlina Borgohain noticed its napkins featured an incomplete map of India, allegedly omitting the North East. "Every part of India is important," she said. BFI President Ajay Singh backed her, claiming Kashmir was also inaccurately depicted, and urged the restaurant to immediately correct the map following India's CWG campaign.

An Indian restaurant in Glasgow has found itself at the centre of a major controversy after members of the Indian contingent visited the establishment following their successful campaign at the 2026 Commonwealth Games. The row erupted after Olympic bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain spotted an allegedly incorrect map of India printed on the restaurant's napkins, prompting strong objections from the Boxing Federation of India (BFI).

The restaurant, Mister Singh's India – The Home of Curry, hosted several Indian athletes after the Games. However, what was meant to be a celebratory dinner soon turned controversial when Lovlina noticed that the printed map omitted the entire North East region of India. The Assam-born boxer immediately raised the issue, saying the omission was unacceptable.

"The map on the napkins is missing our North East. Every part of India is important and should be represented," Lovlina told IANS, expressing disappointment over the depiction. Her remarks quickly gained attention, with many on social media backing her stand and calling for the map to be corrected.

Backing the Olympic medallist, BFI President Ajay Singh said the inaccuracies went beyond the North East, claiming that Jammu and Kashmir had also not been shown in its entirety. He urged the restaurant management to withdraw the napkins immediately and replace them with an accurate representation of India's map, stressing that such errors should not occur at an establishment promoting Indian culture abroad.
