Saudi Arabia is now ready to act upon India's concerns over the issue of the incorrect map depicted in the currency note. The sources claimed that Saudi Arabia is likely to withdraw the banknote soon. "We have seen the banknote referred by you which gives an incorrect depiction of India's external territorial boundaries. "We have conveyed our serious concern to Saudi Arabia, both through their Ambassador in New Delhi as well as in Riyadh, for this gross misrepresentation of India's external territorial boundaries on an official and legal banknote of Saudi Arabia and asked Saudi Arabia to take urgent corrective steps in this regard," Srivastava said. "I would like to further reiterate that the entire Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh are integral parts of India."
