India summons Canadian envoy after pro-Khalistani protesters protest in Canada
New Delhi: India has conveyed its resentment to Canada over pro-Khalistani activists in Canada protesting against Indian authorities. In addition, the Indian Ministry of External Affairs has summoned the Canadian High Commissioner to express strong concern over the actions of extremist elements against India’s diplomatic mission and consulates in Canada.
The government sought clarification on how such elements were allowed to violate the security of Indian diplomatic missions and consulates in the presence of police.
India’s High Commissioner to Canada Sanjay Kumar Verma had to cancel his attendance at an event in Surrey, British Columbia, as around 200 hardliners gathered in front of the venue with swords and sticks to demand the release of Amritpal Singh. Apart from this, many such incidents have taken place.
