Following Canadian allegations, relations between the two nations became stressful that the Indian agent was involved in the murder of NIA-Hardip Harpadi Singh Nijar, an NIA-managed terrorist outside a gurdwara in 2023.
India strongly dismissed the allegations and termed them as “politically motivated”. Diplomatic deadlock increased as the two countries expelled senior diplomats in a title-for-tat reaction. India has expressed constant concern about extremism and anti-India activities on Canadian soil and urged Canadian authorities to take concrete steps to curb such activities. (AI)
