News India Live, Digital Desk: G7 summit: Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are expected to meet at the G7 summit in Italy. Even before this possible meeting, India has once again given a clear and tough message to Canada. India says that the Khalistani separatists growing from the Canadian land are a serious threat to the national security of India, and Canada should take concrete action on them.
India has clearly stated That Khalistani elements should not be allowed to use Canada land to carry out their activities. These elements are promoting terrorist activities in India and are trying to dissolve the peace and security of our country. India has also demanded from Canada to share intelligence found against Khalistani extremists and take strict legal action against them.
Actually, there has been a lot of stress in relations between India and Canada for some time. After the assassination of Khalistani separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada, diplomatic dispute between the two countries had increased significantly. Canada accused Indian agents of being involved in the murder, which India rejected outright. India has always reiterated that terrorism and extremism will not be tolerated in any form.
India has accused Canada that it is giving a “political place” to Khalistani groups, giving them a chance to promote their anti-India activities. India believes that Canada is sheltering these separatist elements under the guise of “freedom of expression”, which is a threat to India’s sovereignty and regional integrity.
If PM Modi meets Trudeau at the G7 summit, it can be a chance to reduce the tension between the two countries and increase cooperation. However, India has made its position clear that there will be no compromise on the issue of national security and Canada will have to take this threat seriously. India wants Canada to not only take action against such elements, but also prevent its earth from becoming a safe base for them.
