The Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has taken a major step amid the controversy over objectionable comments made by Maldivian ministers against Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The ICC has urged tourism and trade associations to stop promoting the Maldives. Trade body president Subhash Goyal has stated all trade associations.

ICC Secretary said in his statement, that India is one of the largest sources of foreign exchange and trade. Please divert such needs towards Lakshadweep, Andaman and Nicobar, as it is much better than Maldives. Other locations in the Indian Ocean region that could be promoted are Sri Lanka, Bali, Mauritius and Phuket.

Subhash Goyal has appealed to all carriers operating in Maldives to suspend their operations. He has also appealed to think about operating in Lakshadweep under the UDAN scheme.
