The India-Turkey diplomatic rift deepened this week as public outrage over Ankara’s support for Pakistan led to widespread boycott calls from Indian citizens. The backlash has triggered policy shifts affecting tourism, business, and academia.

India Bars Celebi From Airport Operations

The Indian government has banned Turkish ground services firm Celebi from operating at major airports including Delhi and Mumbai, citing national security risks. Celebi responded via Bloomberg, calling the ban “unjust” and pledging legal action to challenge the decision.

This development follows the recent India-Pakistan LoC escalation that killed several and prompted Indian airstrikes.

Indian Universities Cut Academic Ties

Premier Indian universities including Jawaharlal Nehru University and Jamia Millia Islamia have suspended academic partnerships with Turkish institutions amid national security concerns.

Social Media Campaigns Drive Travel Boycott

Fueled by hashtags and influencer calls, Indian netizens have been vocal in denouncing travel to Turkey and Azerbaijan. MakeMyTrip reported a 60% drop in bookings and a 250% surge in cancellations, as shared via their official statement.

In a post on X, BJP leader Rajeev Chandrasekhar said, “Every hardworking Indian should not spend on those who support our enemies.”

Indian Tourism Shifts Amid Conflict

Official figures show 330,100 Indians visited Turkey in 2024. Geopolitical risks are now reshaping travel decisions, particularly for middle-income and group travelers.

Although Turkey and Azerbaijan saw significant tourist numbers, Indians made up only 3% of Turkey’s total foreign tourists in 2024. By contrast, they formed 9% of foreign arrivals in Azerbaijan.

Looking Ahead: Alternatives and Trends

Some users suggested Greece as an alternative, but Cleartrip said no significant spike in bookings has occurred. The platform is monitoring the fallout as tensions continue.

To understand how this boycott may evolve, read our in-depth coverage of India’s strategic ties with Azerbaijan.
