Description

India-Canada relations have hit rock bottom, with both countries expelling diplomats. It all began in September 2023, when Canadian PM Justin Trudeau told his country’s parliament that intelligence agencies were actively pursuing “credible allegations” tying agents of the Indian government to the Sikh separatist’s death. India rejected them as “absurd and motivated”.

A year later, Trudeau has yet to present concrete evidence despite intelligence reports, both Signal Intelligence and Human Intelligence, suggesting Indian links. So, why hasn’t he made this intel public yet?

Given Khalistan poses no real threat to India, was this a diplomatic failure? Could this public spat have been avoided through engagement? And does it cast doubts on India's aspirations as a global power?

In this episode of Geeta's World, our host, Anna Priyadarshini, and the foreign affairs editor at India Today, TV Today Network, Geeta Mohan, discuss!
