The collapse of an entire cabinet is not an isolated event. It is the latest sign of a government that is unstable, and increasingly unpopular. In the middle of a national fiscal crisis, at one of the most uncertain moments in global affairs, Maldives cannot afford this. I call on President @MMuizzu to bring all parties together in the national interest to address the economic and governance crises facing the Maldives.
History repeat, repeat itself. America of a way of repeating history.. we like to kidnap presidents get rid of Prime Minister that we do not like. It has nothing to do with civil rights and human rights..
India 🇮🇳 gets just ~1 crore foreign tourists a year.
That’s less than Bangkok (3.2 Crore) alone gets.
And this, in a country with:
🕌 40 UNESCO sites
🏔️ The Himalayas
🌴 Goa, Kerala and Andaman beaches
🍛 The best food on Earth
🧘♂️ Yoga, Ayurveda, Rich Culture, so many Festivals
We have everything, except tourists.
Now imagine if India touched 10 crore+ foreign visitors every year
Here’s what happens 👇
💰 Billions in forex inflow
🏨 Lakhs of new jobs in hotels, taxis, crafts, food
🏡 More income in small towns & villages
🚆 Better infrastructure across tourist circuits
🌍 And a stronger global image for India
Tourism is soft power + real economy combined.
So what’s stopping us?
❌ Dirty public spaces
❌ Aggressive touting & scams
❌ Patchy infrastructure
❌ Poor marketing abroad
❌ Complicated visitor experience
We don’t need to reinvent the Taj Mahal.
We just need to make India cleaner, simpler, and kinder to our guests.
Solutions are simple:
✅ Keep top 50 tourist zones spotless.
✅ Train taxi drivers, guides & shopkeepers.
✅ Make e-visa truly seamless.
✅ Launch an “India Smiles Back” global campaign.
✅ Turn hospitality into national pride again.
If we fix these, India won’t just have 10 crore foreign visitors,
We’ll have 100 crore stories told around the world. 🌏✨
Because the world already loves India.
We just need to make visiting it a joy, not a challenge. 💛
Is Maldives on the brink of a regime change? Will it become the next nation to fall?
The Maldives, once a postcard of democracy, is now gripped by mass protests. Journalists, youth, and opposition parties unite against President Muizzu’s sweeping media bill, pepper spray, arrests, and internet throttling. Find answers on Statecraft at 10pm IST only on India Today Global

Michigan imam Belal Alzuhairi, October 26, 2024: "We as Muslims stand with President Trump because he promises peace, not war. We are supporting Donald Trump because he promised to end war in the Middle East"
This stuff had to be the most ridiculous propaganda in modern memory
Israel's rulers lie, lie, lie and lie again.
Here are some of their many lies taken apart.
And, yet, still, credulous journalists lap up every claim they're fed.
