Prime Minister Narendra Modi and External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar have both called out Canada for failing to control pro-Khalistan extremism after a recent attack on a temple in Brampton. Modi urged the Canadian government to uphold the rule of law, but Canada’s response has been controversial. Instead of taking action, Canadian leaders, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, have made allegations against India without evidence. Meanwhile, Indian diplomats in Canada face increased surveillance and intimidation tactics by extremist groups.
The Khalistan separatist movement has a long history in Canada, dating back to the 1985 Air India Flight 182 bombing. Since 2014, Modi’s government has been actively raising this issue, but Canada’s response has often been to accuse India instead of addressing the problem. Experts believe this is because the Khalistan vote is important in Canadian politics. The extremist groups have significant political influence due to their unified voting power, which could affect election outcomes.
The growing radicalization among Canadian Sikh youth and the increasing influence of Khalistan groups may help the ruling Liberal Party in Canada. However, this support for extremism could lead to long-term problems. PM Modi’s strong words suggest that India will be holding Trudeau responsible for any further extremist activities related to the Khalistan movement. Modi’s direct statement, which came after numerous provocations, signals a tougher stance from India toward Canada as both countries approach future elections. Canada must address these issues before they spiral further, impacting both countries’ interests.
