Canada, on Monday, again sparked a major row by updating its travel advisory, wherein it cautioned its citizens about the tension between the two nations and alerted them about the entry and exit to New Delhi. In its latest advisory, it said that the visa services are suspended.
“In the context of recent developments in Canada and in India, there are calls for protests and some negative sentiment towards Canada on social media. Please remain vigilant and exercise caution,” read the latest advisory.
The latest development came a week after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau landed his country in a major controversy by linking the murder of Khalistani terrorist, Hardeep Singh Nijjar, with Indian agents– a claim New Delhi rejected outrightly.
Subsequently, the tension between the two nations soared to a new low and this prompted the expulsion of diplomats from their respective countries. Responding to the allegations of Trudeau that he has “credible information” about India’s link with the killing of the extremist, the Ministry of External Affairs rejected the claims and said Ottawa did not proffer any “proof” that could ascertain Canadian PM’s claim.
This is a breaking story. More details will be added.
