Pratik Sehajpal talks about the derogatory comments against PM Modi by Maldives ministers
Talking about the effect of the derogatory statements by such a high ranking official, Pratik says, "Consider different countries as distinct businesses. If I make derogatory statements about them, why would they buy goods from me? Every country should understand the economic implications of their actions. For instance, when TikTok was banned, China was significantly affected. Similarly, in the case of Maldives, officials should be aware of major tourist demographics, maintain diplomatic relationships, and avoid making derogatory statements."
Speaking about people's personal choice of visiting Maldives in the future after this incident, says, "It depends on people whether they want to visit or not. I am sure that after all these incidents, people will avoid going. I went to South Africa for Khatron Ke Khiladi and then visited Goa and a few other cities. I realized that in our country, there is everything to explore. We should go out of the country, but let's first explore our beauty. If the Maldives had made such derogatory statements against us, they should be apologetic and take appropriate action."
Pratik supports #ExploreIndianIslands
Amidst the growing popularity of the Lakshadweep islands, Pratik also supported the idea of PM's #ExploreIndianIslands. She says, "I haven't visited the Maldives before, but there are many places in India that you should explore first."
Speaking about Bollywood actors like Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and many others boycotting Maldives and encouraging Indian tourism, Pratik says, "I appreciate Bollywood celebrities like Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar taking a stand. They are also human, and if they think something is wrong, taking a stand on that particular topic is their choice. There are not only socio-political but also various other things happening. Everyone has a fundamental right to speak."

Pratik concludes by adding about Indians being the majority to visit Thailand, says, "If people cancel their trip to the Maldives, their economy will be affected. They will realize this soon, as the majority of tourists are Indian, providing them with significant business. It will impact both global relationships and the country's business economy. There should be mutual respect.
