Canada Levels Shocking Charge Against India: Here’s How they Reached This Point





Canada and India are engaged in a major diplomatic row following an explosive allegation by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Trudeau claimed last week that Canadian authorities have evidence linking "agents of the government of India" to the killing of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil in June this year. 


Nijjar was an outspoken supporter of an independent Sikh homeland called Khalistan, carved out of India's Punjab region. He had been campaigning for Sikh rights and self-determination, which irked the Indian government. India considers the Khalistan movement extremism and a threat to national security.


Trudeau's revelation in Parliament angered New Delhi, which denies any involvement in Nijjar's assassination. India expelled a senior Canadian diplomat in response. Canada too expelled an Indian diplomat, who they claim was heading Indian intelligence operations in the country. 


Tensions escalated further with India announcing a temporary suspension of visa services for Canadian citizens, citing threats against Indian diplomats. Canada maintains it is simply sharing facts uncovered by an ongoing investigation. Prime Minister Trudeau has urged India to cooperate with Canadian authorities to ensure justice is served. 


Nijjar's killing shocked the sizable Sikh community in Canada, home to over 770,000 Sikhs worldwide. Key Canadian allies like the US, UK and Australia have expressed concerns about the assassination allegations. However, the heated accusations have severely damaged previously cordial relations between India and Canada, both important partners of Western nations. 


Experts say it could take considerable time and effort to repair ties. With no sign of either side backing down, the fallout from Canada's extraordinary claims against India continues to play out, with the potential for long-term strategic implications in the region. The fate of the investigation into Nijjar's murder also remains uncertain in the current political climate.
