India summons the Canadian High Commissioner !

The case of the Khalistani protests outside the Indian High Commission in Canada

New Delhi – A few days ago Khalistanis protested outside the Indian High Commission in Toronto, Canada. Because of this, an event scheduled to be attended by the Indian envoy to Canada was cancelled. Hence, India’s foreign ministry summoned the top Canadian diplomat and sought an explanation on how the separatists were allowed to breach the security of its diplomatic mission and consulates.

New Delhi also reminded the Canadian Government of its obligations under the Vienna Convention and asked it to arrest and prosecute the individuals identified and involved in such acts. “It is expected that the Canadian Government will take all steps which are required to ensure the safety of our diplomats and security of our diplomatic premises so that they are able to fulfil their normal diplomatic functions.”

Editorial viewpoint

Canada has become a centre of Khalistani activities. Knowing this, it is not enough to just demand an explanation but take steps to uproot these Khalistani activities from there.
