India-Maldives row: EaseMyTrip suspends all Maldives flight bookings

IndiaTimes Monday, 8 January 2024
The co-founder and chief executive officer (CEO) of EaseMyTrip, Nishant Pitti, has announced the suspension of all Maldives flight bookings following the derogatory remarks made by Maldives ministers against India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Maldivian politicians triggered a controversy by making disparaging remarks about Prime Minister Narendra Modi and ridiculing his visit to Lakshadweep, portraying it as a tourist destination for Indians. Earlier in the day, the Indian Association of Tour Operators predicted that the call for a boycott would become apparent within the next 20-25 days.
