India’s Ministry of External Affairs says it summoned a top Canadian diplomat in India after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attended a Toronto Sikh celebration where Indian separatist slogans were shouted.
“The Canadian Deputy High Commissioner was today summoned to the Ministry of External Affairs with regard to the raising of separatist slogans on ‘Khalistan’ at an event which was being personally addressed by the Prime Minister of Canada,” wrote the ministry in an April 29 statement.
