Twitter users quickly pointed out the mistake and Tharoor ultimately deleted the tweet after receiving much flak.

Even the BJP slammed Tharoor for sharing the wrong map of India. BJP's IT Cell head Amit Malviya said in a tweet, In the name of anti-CAA protest, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor posts a mutilated map of India... This can’t be an oversight. Earlier Farhan Akhtar did it and now him. Who is he trying to please? His co-conspirators in Pakistan or radical constituents back home? Slamming Tharoor, BJP leader Sambit Patra said, Why’s is it so Mr @ShashiTharoor that the Map of INDIA  that your party & workers are advertising, is a distorted one ..is this Congress’ idea of India -Distort,Divide & Destroy??Shouldn’t Mr Tharoor apologize for demeaning India? Check out the tweets here..... 

Dear @ShashiTharoor

I apologize that I cannot read Malayalam.

Looking at the map of India that you shared, I have to ask what your protest is about?

Are you demanding that PoK should be given to Pakistan? pic.twitter.com/6jlGveXv4x

Shameless Italian looteri directed them to use distorted map of India without Kashmir and Aksai Chin. Kerala may be educated but most of indigenous faiths following Indians are behaving like fools and infected with secularitis. https://t.co/gf8kFwPd1I
