India Protests Pro-Khalistan Slogans in Canada
India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) expressed deep concern and strong protest over the raising of pro-Khalistan slogans at an event in Canada.
Key Points:
- India summons Canadian deputy high commissioner over pro-Khalistan slogans.
- Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attended the event.
The Ministry of External Affairs stated, “The Government of India’s deep concern and strong protest was conveyed at such disturbing actions being allowed to continue unchecked at the event. This illustrates once again the political space that has been given in Canada to separatism, extremism, and violence.”
The statement continued, “Their continued expressions not only impact India-Canada relations but also encourage a climate of violence and criminality in Canada to the detriment of its own citizens.”
