"Hindu Canadians Express Fear Amidst Controversy: MP from Trudeau's Party Speaks Out"

Chandra Arya, a Liberal party MP from Justin Trudeau's party, expressed concern over the safety of Hindu Canadians amid threats from extremist elements and accused the Canadian government of inaction against Khalistan extremists. Arya highlighted the history of violence associated with the Khalistan movement, including the Air India bombing, and the public celebration of the assassination of Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in Toronto. He also mentioned the open hate crime by the leader of Sikhs for Justice, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, who threatened Hindu Canadians to leave the country. These concerns come amidst diplomatic tensions between India and Canada after Trudeau alleged Indian involvement in the killing of a Khalistani terrorist, which India dismissed as "absurd and motivated."

"Canada's Sikh murder controversy fuels diplomatic tensions with India"

A row between Canada and India over the murder of a Sikh separatist has sparked debate among some Sikhs and Hindus in the diaspora. After Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused India of being behind the killing, a video surfaced of the head of a US-based Sikh separatist group calling for Hindu Canadians to return to India. While some fear a division between the Hindu and Sikh communities in Canada, others believe it is a political issue and that the majority of Indo-Canadians maintain close ties. Canada has a large Indo-Canadian population with deep ties to both countries.
