The Indian government has responded in kind and ordered the departure of a senior Canadian diplomat after Ottawa made accusations that New Delhi was involved in the murder of a Sikh activist in Canada.
“The decision reflects [the] Government of India’s growing concern at the interference of Canadian diplomats in our internal matters and their involvement in anti-India activities,” says a Sept. 19 statement by the Indian Ministry of External Affairs.
The statement did not name the diplomat but said they would need to leave the country within the next five days. If it involves a tit-for-tat retaliation, the Canadian diplomat could have ties to the security apparatus.
