New Delhi: Oct 17
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in his testimony before the Inquiry Commission, acknowledged that no concrete evidence has been provided to India regarding the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. This admission comes after repeated accusations from Trudeau, implicating India in Nijjar’s death.
India’s Ministry of External Affairs responded by affirming that Trudeau’s statement confirms India’s long-standing position that Canada has yet to provide substantial proof to back its claims. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal reiterated that Canada has not presented any credible evidence, despite making serious allegations.
Trudeau further admitted that Canada had only shared intelligence information, not solid evidence, with India, leading to further tensions between the two nations. The diplomatic row began after Nijjar’s assassination in June 2023, when Trudeau accused India of involvement, causing a significant strain in relations.
