India’s Foreign Ministry has strongly criticized Canada. The Foreign Ministry said it received a diplomatic message. The message states that the Indian High Commissioner and other diplomats in Canada are persons of interest in a matter related to an investigation in that country. Persons of interest Usually persons of interest are those who are suspects in a criminal case. The Ministry of External Affairs said that the Government of India strongly rejects these absurd allegations and attributes them to the political agenda of the Trudeau government which focuses on vote bank politics. Since Prime Minister Trudeau made certain allegations in September 2023, the Canadian government has not shared even a shred of evidence with the Indian government, despite multiple requests from our side.

The Government of India strongly rejects these absurd allegations and gives them credit for it. The political agenda of the Trudeau government which focuses on vote bank politics.
