Canada Pulls 41 Diplomats Out of India, as Relations Keep Deteriorating Over the Killing of a Sikh Separatist
The fragile diplomatic relations between India and Canada took another turn for the worse, as it surfaces that Canada’s foreign minister has recalled 41 of its diplomats from India.
This relocation comes after the Indian government decided to revoke their diplomatic immunity in yet another escalation over the slaying of a Sikh separatist in Canada.
The relations began to deteriorate after Canada alleged that India may have been involved in the June killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar in suburban Vancouver.
While India has accused Canada of continually harboring separatists and terrorists, it has also dismissed the allegation of its involvement as ‘absurd.’
New Delhi has since taken multiple diplomatic steps to express its anger over the accusation.
