India is proposing a draconian new security law that could lead to seven years in jail and a $15m fine for anyone who publishes a “wrong” map of the country that shows disputed territory as lying outside its borders.
The draft law, published for consultation by the home affairs ministry of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s administration, will require organisations that offer maps, such as Google, to apply to a “security vetting authority” and buy licences to use official mapping data.
