India’s visa processing center in Canada says it has suspended services as a rift widened between the countries after Canada’s leader said India may have been involved in the killing of a Canadian citizen.

India’s visa processing center in Canada suspended services Thursday as a rift widened between the countries after Canada’s leader said India may have been involved in the killing of a Canadian citizen.

Ties between Ottawa and New Delhi, two key strategic partners on security and trade, have plunged to their lowest point in years after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau this week said there were “credible allegations” of Indian involvement in the assassination of a Sikh separatist leader on its soil.

Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a 45-year-old Canadian citizen who had been wanted by India for years, was gunned down in June outside the temple he led in Surrey, outside Vancouver.

    Modi is a fascist and India in its current state is a material threat to a peaceful international community. The world has a moral obligation to bring the country to heel.

        Not defending india but every country look after their best interest. Human beings are really special characters, they only care when it starts to affect them personally. NATO could give Ukraine membership and resolve this once in for all but it won’t. India on the other hand has a long lasting friendship with Russia and would not jeopardize it for Ukraine which was never been a strategic partner for India.

      Religion is the root cause. If everyone becomes atheist , half the problem of this world will resolve instantly. Christian , Muslim, Sikh, Hindu are all following the words of someone who’s long gone. This is 2023 baby!
