President Tsai Ing-wen congratulated Modi on his election victory in June 2024, to which Modi responded expressing hope for closer ties with Taiwan, angering China. Modi's response to Tsai's post led to China lodging a protest with India, prompting a new wave of pro-Taiwan sentiments in Indian political, media, think tank, and academic circles. Experts and politicians in India have publicly supported stronger ties with Taiwan, urging China to respect Taiwan's identity and advocating for diplomatic relations. The incident has also drawn attention from various Indian media outlets and organizations.
