Why a separate flag for Sikkim..?!?!?!?

[KS]

I just noticed that there is a separate flag for Sikkim both in the countries and location options.

Can any admin clarify the rationale behind it.. as Sikkim is an integral/indisputable part of India..?

My strongest objection and protest regarding Sikkim.
Sikkim is not a country. It has been recognosed as a part of India, by China itself. However, it was never going to be a country.

you guys sure have a lot of time in your hands huh!?

lol, I've got the Dubai flag in my location even though its part of UAE.

It's just how the company who made the software made it. Nothing sinister behind it.

Guys learn a thing or two about tech.The software this website is running on (vbulletin) have a flag mod.That comes with these flags.Now asim will have to edit the php files and remove icons from images folder..it's alot of work.I am not sure if Asim would be willing to spend that time..Or maybe the new version has option in admincp.

having a Sikkim flag is okay even though there is 0.00001 chance of a Sikkim member here.
