India-canada relations: Canadian top intelligence agency CSIS (Canadian Security Intelligence Service) has publicly acknowledged for the first time in its 2024 annual report that Khalistani extremist Canada mainly uses Canada to promote violence in India, raise funds and make plans. It has been claiming that Canada has become a safe haven for pro -Khalistan extremists.

The biggest feature of this report is that Canada has accepted the Khalistan movement in terrorist context for the first time using the word ‘extremism’. This is the first time after the 1985 Air India bomb blast that so many clear words have been used at the government level against Khalistanis. The report includes CBKE (Canada-Based Khalistani Extremists) in PMVE (Politically Motivated Vioilent Extremism) category.

India repeated many times
India has been saying for many years that pro -Khalistani leader like Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was killed in 2023, has been openly involved in anti -India activities in Canada. The Government of Canada has given encouragement and tolerance to such elements under the guise of political freedom and expression. Now that CSIS has officially confirmed Indian concerns, the Indian government can present it as a validity of its diplomatic status.

Pakistan also accused
In this report, not only the Khalistani elements, but also Pakistan is considered responsible for foreign intervention in Canada. Reports of National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentaryians (NSICOP) and Public Inquiry Into Foreign Interference (PIFI) have also held Pakistan responsible for influencing Pakistan’s democratic institutions.

India-Canada Relations
Recently, the meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Karney in the G7 Conference (2025, Canada) gave a positive indication towards the re -re -regulation of diplomatic relations. The two leaders have agreed to re -talk about the restoration of the new High Commissioners and the stalled business issues.

India-canada relations: Canadian intelligence agency CSIS (Canadian Security Intelligence Service) has released a report on Wednesday (18 June 2025), in which he has poisoned India, making serious allegations against India. The report said that international repression plays a central role in India’s activities. Indian agents, their proxy and officials in Canada are involved in activities that try to merge Canada policies with the interests of India. This statement has come to light when Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney talked about improving relations with each other just 1 day earlier.

CSIS has included many things in the report. The report claimed that India is trying to suppress in Canada. Especially against those who support Khalistan. He described China as the biggest intelligence threat, but CSIS also took the names of India, Russia, Iran and Pakistan. The Canadian intelligence agency alleged that Indian agents and proxy adopt a strategy to influence the politics of Canada and communities.

India’s response and trend
Although there is no official response from New Delhi after this report, India has a permanent attitude that the pro -Khalistan organizations and rallies in Canada are against India’s sovereignty. Canada gives an open exemption to Sikh separatists, causing frequent stress in bilateral relations.

Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar murdered
Tensionful relations between India and Canada have been formed since the murder of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Hardeep Singh Nijjar was murdered in Canada on 18 June 2023. Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau blamed the Government of India for the murder. India dismissed these allegations outright and accused Canada of promoting Khalistani activities. After this incident, the two countries expelled each other’s top diplomats and the ties were badly affected.
