Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has once again accused government agents in India of being involved in the killing of Khalistan terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. He has called for cooperation from New Delhi in the probe into the matter. This assertion comes after India rejected his allegations, labeling them as “absurd” and “politically driven.”
Trudeau emphasized the significance of the issue, stating, “There are credible reasons to believe that agents of the Government of India were involved in the killing of a Canadian on Canadian soil.” He stressed the importance of a country with a rule of law in upholding an international rule-based order.
In a direct and frank conversation with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Trudeau shared his concerns regarding the matter. He urged the Indian government to take the allegations seriously and work together to ensure transparency, accountability, and justice.
Canada has a rigorous and independent justice system, and Trudeau expressed confidence in its ability to handle the investigation. He vowed to protect Canadians and uphold the values of the rule of law and international rules-based order.
In response to Canada’s allegations, India has expelled a senior Canadian diplomat as a tit-for-tat measure after Ottawa’s expulsion of an Indian official in connection to the case.
Saurabh Verma, a Senior Sub-editor covering general, national, and international news for news18.com, reported on Trudeau’s allegations. Verma is known for his keen observations of politics.
