“Preposterous Imputations”: Trudeau’s Escalation, India’s Strong Rebuttal [Video]

New Delhi:

India on Monday issued a sharp rebuttal to Canada, rejecting allegations of its High Commissioner being a ‘person of interest’ in a murder investigation, describing them as “preposterous imputations.” 

Ties between India and Canada have been thorny ever since Justin Trudeau alleged India’s involvement in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian Khalistani terrorist, in June 2023. India has repeatedly refuted these claims as “absurd” and “motivated,” accusing Trudeau’s government of indulging in vote-bank politics by pandering to pro-Khalistan elements within Canada.

The diplomatic row took a sharp turn when Canada reportedly named the Indian High Commissioner Sanjay Kumar Verma as a ‘person of interest’ in its investigation into Nijjar’s death. India swiftly hit back, accusing Canada of maligning its officials without evidence and using “preposterous” claims to justify its failure to curb Khalistani extremism on its soil.
