Geocode API returning zero results for valid lat/lng

Question

Google reverse geocode api returning zero result when using lat/lng but returns correct result using place_id For example Calling below link(replace key with your API key) returns the result https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?place_id=ChIJhe1fRCHr_TgREPeGUJcJu9E&key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Then why would I would I get some result in an area in J&K when I search by place_id? — umesh agarwal, Aug 10 '15 at 13:54

The LatLng is placed in a disputed area, google usually tries to avoid to include results from such places.

If this is a disputed area then why would google return result when searching by place_id instead of lat/lng? – umesh agarwal Aug 09 '15 at 13:18
maybe because they've decided to do it – Dr.Molle Aug 09 '15 at 13:19
