Bollywood celebs join hands for Lakshadweep, says “Why should we tolerate hate”
Well-known celebrities have taken to the social media to show their support for the Indian tourist places and #ExploreIndianIslands campaign.
Amid tension between India and the Maldives after a Maldives minister posted a controversial tweet regarding the Lakshadweep Island, well-known celebrities have taken to the social media to express their support for the Indian tourist place.
B’town superstar Akshay Kumar took to his official X handle and tweeted, “Came across comments from prominent public figures from Maldives passing hateful and racist comments on Indians. Surprised that they are doing this to a country that sends them the maximum number of tourists. We are good to our neighbors but why should we tolerate such unprovoked hate? I’ve visited the Maldives many times and always praised it, but dignity first. Let us decide to #ExploreIndianIslands and support our own tourism.”
