India expresses concern to Canada over Sikh protests and security threats.

India has summoned Canada's High Commissioner to express concern over Sikh protesters in Canada who breached the security of India's diplomatic mission and consulates. The protesters were demanding an independent Sikh state, a long-standing issue that has recently resurfaced. India has called on the Canadian government to ensure the safety of its diplomats and security of its diplomatic premises. The statement follows Indian police launching a hunt for Sikh preacher Amritpal Singh, who has revived talk of an independent Sikh homeland and stoked fears of a return to violence.
