FBI Chief Visits India Amidst Sikh Assassination Plot Indictment

FBI Director Christopher Wray is in India to strengthen security cooperation, but his visit comes after the US accused an Indian government official of being involved in a conspiracy to kill a Sikh separatist in New York City. The alleged target, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, is considered a terrorist by the Indian government but an activist by some Sikhs overseas. The US plot was foiled, and India has denied involvement, setting up a committee to investigate the accusations. While the incident has raised concerns about New Delhi's credibility, analysts believe the chances of a major fallout between the US and India are low, as both countries are committed to countering China.
