A Delhi-based jewellery brand, The Olio Stories, has been embroiled in controversy for showing distorted maps of India in its campaign, "Azadi", and wishing Pakistan on its Independence Day.  Several people took to X (formerly Twitter) to call out the brand for using the wrong map of India in their new collection video and naming the collection "Azadi." It is learnt that Aashna Singh and Sneha Saksena run the jewellery brand. One user said that the distorted map shows Kashmir as a separate state/country and Ladakh inside China. Another user alleged that Olio Stories has been sharing distorted maps of India since the beginning. "Celebrate Pakistani indepedence day, circumvent Indian laws to ship products to Pak via Dubai, throw shade at India, try to whitewash Pak's image, hire Pakistani artists, use incorrect map of India....the list goes on. And then play victim card when you're (rightly) called out by indians," a third user said. A fourth user said, "India is full of traitors like these two girls from The Olio Stories." Amid the backlash, "The Olio Stories" issued an official statement and said that they wanted to issue a formal apology to anyone whom they had offended with the map of India they shared. "It was never our intention to hurt sentiments and we are truly sorry," the jewellery brand said. Makeover Yash No More: Beauty Influencer Yashu Singh’s Death Leaves Fans Heartbroken, Family Confirms the Tragic Loss on Social Media (View Post).
