The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has taken action against Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a pro-Khalistani leader based in Canada, by seizing his property in Punjab. This move comes in the wake of his threats to Hindus living in Canada and the strained relations between India and Canada due to recent events.

NIA Takes Action Against Pro-Khalistani Leader

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has made a significant move by seizing the property of Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a pro-Khalistani leader based in Canada. This action follows his recent threats to Hindus living in Canada, urging them to leave the country.

The relationship between India and Canada has hit a low point, primarily due to a diplomatic dispute arising from the murder of another Khalistani terrorist, Hardeep Singh Nijjar, in June. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau alleged India’s involvement in the killing, which led to tensions between the two countries.

On June 18, Hardeep Singh Nijjar was killed in Surrey, British Columbia, leading to allegations from Prime Minister Trudeau about India’s involvement. Subsequently, Indian intelligence agencies issued warnings to Indians in Canada, cautioning them about possible attacks by Khalistani groups.

They also expressed concerns about Indian businesses, staff members, and temples potentially becoming targets. These developments have strained bilateral relations, which were already facing challenges due to pro-Khalistan elements in Canada.

Pannun recently made a threatening video directed at Indo-Canadian Hindus living in Canada. In his video, he claimed that pro-Khalistan Sikhs have always been loyal to Canada and have sided with the country.

This video surfaced shortly after Prime Minister Trudeau hinted at a “potential link” between Indian government agents and the killing of Nijjar. This situation led to the expulsion of one senior diplomat from each country.
