Islamabad
i Sir,—Your map of the Indian sub-continent pub'liShed in “The Press” of i December 8 revealed a hitherto undetected political bias. You placed Islamabad, 1 the-capital of Pakistan, right i in the middle of Indian-held ■ Kashmir. Whilst this may be a correct analysis of the , aspirations of the West army, the fact i remains that the Pakistan Government is very proud of iitr grand new capital, I Islamabad, situated on the I outskirts of Rawalpindi.— ; Yoiirs, etc., i P.A.A. December 9,1971. [When.the map was drawn a ’ small village in Kashmir i with the name Islamabad was inadvertently ih- ’ eluded instead of the new city of Islamabad close to Rawalpindi. The , error is regretted.—Ed., , "The Press.”]
