Maldives Suspends 3 Ministers For Racist, Anti-Modi Tirade; Indians Fume, #BoycottMaldives Trends

Maldives has suspended three ministers over derogatory remarks made against India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his recent visit to Lakshadweep. The Mohamed Muizzu govt took action against Mariam Shiuna, Malsha and Hassan Zihan before warning of action. The suspension came after Indians started trending ‘Boycott Maldives’ on X, formerly Twitter. Indian celebrities even shared #ExploreIndianIslands, a reference to opting for holidays in Indian islands rather than Maldives.

India has spent crores of rupees for improvement of tourism in Maldives instead of developing Lakshadeep as a better tourist spot than Maldives . That was a mistake, as India now feels .

[jadavchowdhury]

Huge respect to those who cancelled their trip to Maldives. Even I cancelled my family trip to Maldives. There are few people like her who spoil the friendship between nations. One rotten Potato which puts rest of the potatoes into trouble.

Great move, Maldives!! 🙏🙏

Maldives' economy is largely depndent on tourism and mostly Indian tourists go there. If Indians boycott Maldives then there will be no loss to India but there could be huge loss to Maldives' economy

India shouldn't give too much importance to Maldives. They forget rescue of entire Maldives by Srilankan pirates. Develop our own Lakshadweep to counter their anti India stand.

" Personal comments " of the Maldivian ministers expose their uncivilised mindset.

[tiyasaghosh]

Really good to see celebrities support ing govt

[sivakrishnadevara]

What about MP of maldives who started racism first?

[prakashpatil]

Suspending their officials & ministers is all Maldives drama. It's not a win for Bharat and we shouldn't fall for any apologies.
Maldives campaigned for "India out". Now these derogatory statements also, they meant it.
They are no different from Pakistan belonging to the same peaceful community.
Bharat should uphold its dignity & self-respect.
Bharat should boycott Maldives from all travel, business and trades.
Jai hind. 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏🏼

[mohanrama]

All Indians should permanently boycott Maldives and teach thisgovt and ministers a Bloody lesson. Time for India to take action now.

[karthikshettyable]

Most Indians were either not aware or did not care about the India Out campaign of their Premiere. But now because of this fiasco by his partymen, all Indians have become knowledgeable enough to make apt decisions

[akshaymor]

People of Maldives are never grateful for what India has done for them.

[RakeshVerma-tvwi]

Our own India has everything to offer, mountains, snow, desert, islands, heritage sites, cultural sites, party sites. Literally everything what every traveler wants. Every parts of India has its unique beauty, Kashmir, North East, South, Western and islands, there is so much to explore, let’s promote our India.

[ModiLaoxian]

Now their government is crying 🇲🇻 😂😂🤣🤣

[pikuapu]

Respect for those who cancelled bookings and tickets.👍

[prasad_]

The first and foremost mistake every Modi haters do is challenge and demean India and he gives befitting reply to all those clowns without talking🤩🤩🤩🤩

[manishg]

Islamic republic of Maldives has to feel the pain for their extremism and hate filled ideology. God bless Modi! ❤
