Tensions escalated between Canada and India  on Tuesday following Ottawa's accusation that New Delhi may be behind the murder of a Sikh activist on Canadian soil, with both sides expelling senior diplomats high while India rejected the accusations as "absurd".

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday said his government was investigating "credible allegations" that Indian government agents were involved in the death of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, whom India considers as a "terrorist" because he supported an independent Sikh state. Nijjar , 45, was shot dead in June outside a Sikh cultural center in Surrey, British Columbia, a suburb of Vancouver. India has for years expressed dismay at the presence of an organized – and in some cases extremist – Sikh separatist movement in Canada, centered on the idea of ​​a “Kalistan”. independence in Punjab, home of Sikhism. With this barbaric response, India's Ministry of External Affairs said the expulsion reflects "the government's growing concern over the interference of Canadian diplomats in our internal affairs and the their participation in anti-India activities."

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's allegations  were completely ignored by the Indian government and led to Canada's allegations regarding Nijjar's murder being dismissed as an "absurd and irrelevant allegation".

The Indian government said in a statement that such baseless allegations are aimed at diverting attention from Khalistan terrorists and extremists, who have taken refuge in Canada and continue to threaten sovereignty and territorial integrity of India.

They also said that the Canadian government is responsible for this cause and that they are indirectly supporting the Khalistanis. Canada's accusation comes with the expulsion of a senior Indian diplomat, Pavan Kumar Rai,identified by its foreign minister as the head ofIndia's Research and Analysis Wing  (RAW) in Canada . This morning, India expelled a senior Canadian diplomat in a retaliatory move due to "Canadian diplomats' interference in our internal affairs and their participation in anti-India activities." Degree".

The most important move was Prime Minister Narendra Modi reprimanding his Canadian counterpart Justin Trudeau at the G20 summit in Delhi for separatist activities and attacks by Khalistan supporters on Indian diplomatic missions in Canada. A few days later, Canada postponed a trade mission to India scheduled for October.

The Indian government also said in the statement that Canada's space for a range of illegal activities, including murder, human trafficking and organized crime, is not new, and called on Canada to take action. Rapid action against all “anti-India elements”. ” " works from there.

Hardeep Singh Nijjarwas shot dead and was wanted in India for being the “mastermind” of the Khalistani Tigers, a designated terrorist group in India.

Moreover, India asks canada diplomat to leave within 5 days.

Nijjar was also accused of bombing a Punjab cinema in 2007. The NIA is also investigating recent attacks on Indian diplomatic missions in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. Recent months have seen more Khalistani activity in Canada, including protests in front of the Indian embassy and threatening posters targeting Indian diplomats. 

So, more or less the Canadian Prime Minister's criticism of the Indian government is meaningless because they are carrying out many illegal diplomatic activities, harming the sentiments of India and the Territorial Army .
