My two cents - like Wikipedia, OSM is a project that is edited by a global community. A project like this might not always follow all the guidelines of all the countries, and recognize some international borders as disputed. These maps merely use the existing map data from OSM, and I don't think it is that easy to make such changes to the latter. I am no expert in OSM. Someone like Arun (Ganesh) might be able to shed more light on this. However, this is indeed a very important issue.

Good Sighting Ashwin,

We must show correct borders as per GoI's recognition.

Can we have maps which are reflective of the GOI's position of the border of our nation, rather than showing parts of J & K as part of Pakistan? Just saying... is it possible?

For some reason, it is showing names with different spellings instead of the current spelling on OSM. Any idea why? 

Links to examples? Could be the tile is using slightly older data or could be rendering issues.
I meant the place names. It is not older names but incorrect/non-standard spellings. Could be older data as you have mentioned.
