In an alarming development, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a separatist figure linked to pro-Khalistan advocacy, has issued new threats against Indian temples in Canada, causing grave concern among Indian officials.
This series of threats, regarded as “acts of terror” by Indian intelligence sources, has intensified diplomatic tensions between India and Canada, already strained over issues related to separatist extremism. The recent video statements announcing dates for possible attacks have placed Canadian authorities on high alert to prevent any incidents that could endanger public safety.
Indian authorities have condemned the threats, urging Canada to take strict preventive action and protect the Indian diaspora. In response to the heightened security risk, diplomatic efforts are underway to reinforce measures against individuals or groups linked to separatist activities.
These developments continue to test bilateral relations, with India emphasizing the need for a collaborative approach to counter extremist threats and ensure the safety of the Indian community in Canada.
