Why Is Maldives In Meltdown Mode?

A social media war between India and the Maldives unfolded as Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Lakshadweep sparked controversy. The Maldives, feeling threatened in beach tourism, faced criticism after derogatory remarks were made against PM Modi. The Maldivian government distanced itself from the comments but suspended three Ministers involved. The clash began when ministers accused India of targeting the Maldives, escalating into offensive comments against Modi and Indians. The incident brings into focus Lakshadweep as a potential rival to the Maldives, turning the spotlight on the competition for the crown of ultimate island bliss.
