The tiny uninhabited island of Katchatheevu, part of Sri Lanka, has sparked controversy as PM Modi criticized Congress for ceding it in 1974. The island has no source of drinking water, only a church drawing devotees. Previously disputed, India settled by relinquishing its claim, which has now become sensitive with China's growing influence in Sri Lanka. Tamil Nadu fishermen often face arrests in the region. Sri Lanka asserts the issue was settled 50 years ago, rejecting the need to revisit it. Opposition accuses BJP of politicizing the matter.
