This happens with all american books with maps in India too - it isn't a Google problem. It's a government problem.

I don't think this article has good reporting, because it suggests that the company has some hidden agenda, when really all it's doing is complying with local laws.

It's neither a Google not a governmental problem. It is fundamentally a people problem, and unlikely to change as long as anyone draws breath.
