India’s relations with Maldives has taken a hit in the recent past under Prime Minister Modi and newly elected President Mohammed Muizzu. A controversy broke out over Modi’s Lakshadweep visit, as Maldivian ministers abused the PM and Indians on social media. This led to outrage in India following which, #BoycottMaldives started trending and hit the tourist flow from India to Maldives.

These tensions are part of increasing Anti-India sentiments in Maldives over the last 12 years, which has been promoted by former President Yameen Gayoom, who is seen as a pro-China leader.

But until 2012 India enjoyed very close relations with Maldives and had even protected the country against a coup attempt by Tamil militant outfit PLOTE in 1988 under Operation Cactus, under the then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.
