A Canadian government official, who did not wish to be identified, told The New York Times that information on the murder of Nijjar Singh has been collected with the help of many countries. Complete information regarding this will be given after the investigation is completed. Let us tell you that Canada is a part of an intelligence alliance named Five Eyes. Apart from Canada, this also includes America, Britain and Australia.
Had earlier said- will put pressure on India for investigationEarlier, Trudeau had told MPs – The involvement of a foreign government in killing a citizen on Canadian soil is a violation of the sovereignty of our country. We will put pressure on the Indian government to cooperate in the investigation of this murder.
Prime Minister Trudeau said- The large population of Sikhs of Indian origin living in Canada is full of anger over this murder. Many Sikhs are in fear for their safety. There are about 18 lakh citizens of Indian origin in the country, many of whom are Sikhs. Jagmeet Singh, leader of Canada's opposition party New Democratic Party, is from the Sikh community.
India said- Canada's allegations are absurdIndia has rejected all the allegations made by Canada. Foreign Ministry said- All allegations of Canada are absurd. Similar allegations were made by the Canadian Prime Minister to our PM Modi and they were completely rejected.
Such baseless allegations are an attempt to divert attention from Khalistani terrorists and extremists. They have been granted asylum in Canada and They are a threat to India's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Here the news also came that Foreign Minister Jaishankar met PM Modi on Wednesday. According to media reports, Jaishankar has briefed the PM on the entire matter.

No action is taken, but within three months of the murder of Khalistani Nijjar, Canada got major clues... how this happened.
