“India Recalls Ambassador from Canada Amid Dispute Over Assassination of Sikh Activist”
India has taken a bold step in its ongoing dispute with Canada over the assassination of Sikh activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, as it has decided to recall its ambassador from Ottawa. The move comes after tensions between the two countries escalated following the recent killing of Khalra, a prominent figure in the Sikh community who was known for his efforts to uncover human rights abuses in Punjab.
The Indian government has accused Canadian authorities of not taking sufficient action to investigate Khalra’s assassination, which took place in broad daylight in Vancouver. The incident has stirred up emotions within the Sikh community, both in India and abroad, leading to widespread protests and calls for justice.
In response to India’s decision to recall its ambassador, Canada has expressed its disappointment and reiterated its commitment to working with Indian authorities to bring the perpetrators of Khalra’s murder to justice. However, the move has further strained relations between the two countries, with both sides trading accusations and threats of retaliation.
The assassination of Jaswant Singh Khalra has not only reignited long-standing tensions between India and Canada but has also raised concerns about the safety and security of activists fighting for human rights around the world. As the situation continues to unfold, the international community will be closely watching to see how both countries navigate this delicate diplomatic crisis.
