#BoycottMaldives #maldives #pmmodi
A social media storm erupted after a Maldivian minister mocked Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his recent visit to Lakshadweep. Though Maldives has suspended three ministers over the row, several Indians have cancelled their visit to the popular holiday destination in protest. The remarks against Modi have also been condemned by many Indian celebrities, such as Sachin Tendulkar and Salman Khan, who have supported the #BoycottMaldives trend on social media. So, have India-Maldives diplomatic ties nosedived beyond repair? Or is there a way to de-escalate tensions?

Former diplomat and author Anil Trigunayat weighs in on the issue.
