New Delhi: PM Modi’s recent visit to ‘Land of Corals’ Lakshadweep, has shot India’s beach heaven to limelight. The Indian PM shared a post in which he could be seen snorkeling, walking on white sand, and resting on a pristine beach. Soon after the post went viral, Lakshadweep became the 10th most searched word on Google in India. Netizens were quick to compare Lakshadweep with Maldives, and they claimed the former could be a better beach vacation spot. However, the surging popularity of the Indian island has not taken in good taste by an MP from Maldives. Reacting to a post featuring PM Modi's visit, Maldives MP Zahid Rameez said that the idea of competing with them is "delusional". Taking to X, PPM's Zahid Rameez made controversial remark saying that, "The permanent smell in the rooms will be the biggest downfall" for India. Twitter user were quick to lambast the Maldives politician for his 'distasteful' remarks on Lakshadweep. Maldives may be one of the top tourist spots, but PM Modi’s vision for Lakshadweep has propelled UT's tourism prospects.
