Tensions Rise as Canada Rejects Indian Travel Advisory and Investigates Sikh Leader's Killing

Canada rejects an Indian travel advisory warning its citizens to exercise "utmost caution" when visiting Canada, while Canada updates its travel information warning travelers to exercise a "high degree of caution" when visiting India due to the "threat of terrorist attacks." The travel advisory dispute comes amid escalating tensions between the two countries, with Canada investigating potential links between Indian government agents and the killing of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. India's foreign ministry expressed concern for the safety of its citizens in Canada due to "politically condoned hate crimes and criminal violence." The investigation announcement by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has inflamed long-running tensions between Ottawa and New Delhi over Sikh advocacy in Canada.
