Diplomatic Crisis Between India and Canada Deepens Amid Allegations of India's Involvement in Canadian Sikh Leader's Assassination

• Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau claims credible evidence linking Indian government agents to the murder of Canadian Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia.
• India staunchly denies any involvement, calls the allegations "absurd," and accuses Canada of sheltering Sikh extremists seeking an independent homeland known as Khalistan.
• The dispute has led to tit-for-tat expulsions of diplomats, visa restrictions, and an overall deterioration in India-Canada relations.
• Western allies like the U.S. are treading carefully amid competing priorities of supporting Canada while maintaining strategic ties with India as a counter to China.
• While the Khalistan movement does not enjoy wide support in India, it remains a sensitive issue domestically and with the large Sikh diaspora abroad.
