Ottawa: The Canadian government has rejected as completely unacceptable a Global & Mail report that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had prior knowledge of the killing of Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh. The Indian government had already strongly opposed it.
Justin Trudeau’s government responded to the report, clarifying that the report does not reflect the attitude of the Canadian administration. We have nothing to do with this.
Earlier on October 14, the Canadian government had accused the Indian government of being involved in criminal activities. The Justin Trudeau government of Canada took a complete U-turn on this and said that the Canadian government did not say this at all. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Foreign Minister S. We have no evidence that Jaishankar or India’s National Security Agency chief Ajit Doval were involved.
The Indian government earlier this week dismissed the allegations as ridiculous.
Earlier, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Deputy Foreign Minister David Morrissey were also accused of involvement of an Indian agent in the killing of Canada-based Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in September 2024. But during the G-20 conference in Rio de Janeiro, US President Joe Biden had requested both Prime Ministers Trudeau and Modi to meet and discuss, in which Trudeau had praised Prime Minister Modi, withdrawing his earlier statements. This controversy is over.
