"India's Response to Canada's Shift in Relations and Consular Access in Pannun Plot Case"

India reiterates its "core issue" with Canada, stating that the problem lies in the space given to separatists, terrorists, and anti-India elements in the country. The comments come in response to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's remarks about a potential shift in India-Canada ties following the indictment of an Indian national in the US for plotting an assassination attempt on a Sikh separatist. India maintains that its position has remained consistent and hopes that Canada takes action against extremist elements misusing freedom of speech and expression. The strained relations between the two countries began with Trudeau's allegations of Indian involvement in the killing of a Khalistani separatist, which India rejected as absurd.
