Serious allegations: On Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau\u2019s charges against India<\/span><\/h2>\n

India and Canada stare at a <\/span>downturn (A worsening of business or economic activity) <\/b>in ties after Trudeau\u2019s charges<\/span><\/h3>\n

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau\u2019s <\/span>startling (So remarkably different or sudden as to cause momentary shock or alarm) <\/b>allegation, tying the killing of Canadian Khalistani leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June, to \u201cagents of the Government of India\u201d, marks a new low in their <\/span>unravelling (to become or to make something become clear) <\/b>ties. Mr. Trudeau\u2019s accusation \u2014 he said evidence had been shared with India and also raised in a bilateral meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi last weekend \u2014 has <\/span>set off (Set in motion or cause to begin)<\/b> a chain of events. After Canada expelled a senior Indian diplomat, India summoned the Canadian High Commissioner and expelled Canada\u2019s Station chief for intelligence on Tuesday. The United States and Australia, partners with Canada in the \u201cFive Eyes\u201d intelligence sharing agreement, have expressed \u201cdeep concerns\u201d over the issue. The External Affairs Ministry has also accused Canadian diplomats of \u201canti-India\u201d activities, indicating that more diplomats may be under <\/span>scrutiny (The act of examining something closely (as for mistakes))<\/b>, while the Canadian government has spoken about the violation of the international rule of law, and of Canadian \u201csovereignty\u201d, which could <\/span>invoke (to mention a theory, an example, a person etc. to support your views or ideas, or as a reason for something) <\/b>other areas of confrontation. Given the support Mr. Trudeau received from his political rivals in Parliament, remarks critical of India by leaders such as Pierre Poilievre and Jagmeet Singh, it is also likely that the chill will <\/span>outlast (Live longer than) <\/b>this government, if voted out in elections due in 2025. Unlike with Pakistan, where such allegations, name-calling and public confrontation have become routine, it is worth remembering that Canada is a part of the western NATO alliance, and home to Indians and Indian-origin Canadians, and the impact of the <\/span>rupture (the sudden ending of good relations between two people or groups) <\/b>will be felt wider.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first step at such a <\/span>fraught (filled with something unpleasant) <\/b>moment has to be some cold reflection over the next steps. For Mr. Trudeau, the priority must be to publicly prove his very serious allegations, or admit he is unable to. India\u2019s assertions over Canadian safe <\/span>havens (a place where people or animals can be safe and rest) <\/b>for anti-India, separatist violent Khalistani groups have already been proven by many incidents, beginning from the early 1980s to more recent targeting of Indian diplomats and Indian community centres. That Nijjar, chief of the \u201cKhalistan Tiger Force\u201d \u2014 he was wanted in India, accused of being behind terror operations in Punjab in the 1990s, and had an Interpol <\/span>red corner notice (Red Corner Notices are issued for fugitives wanted either for prosecution or to serve a sentence)<\/b> \u2014 was a Canadian citizen speaks for itself. New Delhi must also consider how it wishes to proceed on its ties with Canada. The government had <\/span>hailed (Praise vociferously) <\/b>Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s visit to Canada in 2015, the first bilateral visit by an Indian PM since 1973, with the assumption that decades of mistrust over the Khalistan issue could be <\/span>brushed aside (dismiss something as being unimportant or not worth consideration; disregard something)<\/b>. Earlier this year, India and Canada attempted another reset, with visits by Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly, and fast-tracking free trade talks. However, after the <\/span>acrimonious (full of anger, arguments, and bad feeling) <\/b>Trudeau-Modi meeting on the sidelines of the G-20, and the latest allegations by Mr. Trudeau, diplomatic <\/span>niceties (a detail or aspect of polite social behaviour) <\/b>are clearly at an end, while the FTA talks have been put on pause.<\/span><\/p>\n
