The Indian High Commissioner, Sanjay Kumar Verma, strongly objects to Canada's accusation in Nijjar's killing probe. Seeking evidence, he criticizes the conviction before the investigation's completion, emphasizing the importance of the rule of law and cooperation based on specificity. Tensions escalate as Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau alleges an Indian role in Hardeep Singh Nijjar's killing in Surrey. India rejects the claims, deeming them absurd and motivated, prompting a diplomatic dispute. Canada expels an Indian diplomat, met with Indian retaliation, demanding evidence for the accusations. Electronic visa services resume for eligible Canadians amid strained India-Canada relations. In October, Canada withdraws 41 diplomats, halting visa services in Indian consulates, prompting New Delhi's concerns and a push for diplomatic 'parity' with Ottawa. India resumes visa services after a security review, but diplomatic tensions persist as both nations navigate the fallout of the Nijjar case. India challenges the conviction narrative, stressing the need for evidence and specificity in communication while rejecting unfounded allegations.
