Indian foreign ministry claims ‘security threats’ after Trudeau’s explosive allegation of state-sponsored killing mean it cannot provide visa services safely
India says it is indefinitely suspending visa services in all categories for all Canadian nationals due to “security threats” to its consulates, amid a furious diplomatic row between the two countries.
Indian foreign ministry spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said they have suspended “all categories” of visas, including e-visas and for Canadian citizens applying from third countries.
And India has also moved to downsize the Canadian diplomatic presence in New Delhi, saying that Canada has more embassy workers in its capital than visa versa and that it wants to restore “parity”.
It comes after Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau said there were “credible allegations” of the Indian state’s involvement in the murder of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada, triggering a furious tit-for-tat row.
The term you’re looking for is “very unusual”.
LOL, ok now say to a pregnant woman, “I don’t think you’re very pregnant”. Please report back to us with her response.
Perhaps you haven’t heard or read those before, but they’re very much valid (😉). The downvotes are overwhelming and can’t possibly -imho- reflect disagreement over my wording. I’m pretty sure it has to do with India, but I don’t know why. Is there a particular anti-India sentiment I didn’t know about ?
Well, there is definitely an anti-assassination sentiment. Probably why Saudi Arabia doesn’t get much love either.
