India's decision to recall its ambassador from Canada reflects escalating tensions between the two nations, triggered by accusations about the involvement of Indian diplomats in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
The Indian Foreign Ministry's statement emphasized that they reject the claims made by Canada, labeling them as 'preposterous imputations' and requesting evidence for the allegations against their diplomats.
The ministry accused Canada of using these allegations as a means to politically smear India, indicating that further steps could be taken in response to these repeated provocations by Ottawa.
Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who had become a prominent Sikh activist advocating for Khalistan, was seen as a security threat by India, illustrating the historical complexities surrounding Sikh separatism.
