India Maldives Row. PM Modi visited Lakshadweep a few days ago. The Prime Minister also shared some pictures from there on social media. In these pictures, three leaders of Maldives made objectionable comments towards India and PM Modi.
Due to the statements of Maldivian leaders, relations between the two countries deteriorated. At the same time, due to the inclination of the Muizzu government towards China, the relationship between the two may deteriorate further. Meanwhile, President Mohammad Muizzu has officially given time to India to withdraw its troops on March 15.

India says that the soldiers help in relief and rescue operations along with providing humanitarian aid to the citizens of Maldives (Indian Army in Maldives). India has also given two helicopters and one drone aircraft to Maldives. They are mainly used in maritime surveillance, search and rescue operations, and medical evacuation.

Muizzu also deviated from tradition and chose China for his first foreign trip. Earlier, the President of Maldives has been Select India for his first foreign visit. Muizzu is considered a supporter of China.
