"India-Canada Diplomatic Spat: Visa Suspensions and Caution Advised"

India has suspended visa services for Canadian citizens, citing "security threats" against its diplomats in Canada, amid an escalating diplomatic spat. The move comes after Canada accused India of potential involvement in the assassination of a Sikh separatist activist on Canadian soil. India's Ministry of External Affairs stated that the suspension was due to the incitement of violence, inaction by Canadian authorities, and the disruption of its high commission and consulates. The travel advisory from India's foreign ministry warned its citizens of "politically condoned hate crimes" in Canada. The tensions have led to the expulsion of senior diplomats from both countries, raising concerns about strained relations between key partners of the United States.
