Perhaps on this decision, Nishant Pitti, co-founder and CEO of Easy My Trip said, "After the positive development of improvement in bilateral relations between india and maldives, we are going to resume booking for maldives again." We have taken this decision after positive talks during the recent visit of representatives of the Tourism Ministry of maldives to india and our office. As a nation-first company, we always stand with our government and support their vision.

Previously tensions between india and maldives had increased after prime minister Narendra Modi's visit to Lakshadweep. Some ministers of the government there had made lewd comments on social media on PM Modi's visit to Maldives. After this, the insult of the prime minister and the country was not liked by indians and many companies here, after which the boycott of maldives started.
