India on Friday issued an advisory, asking its nationals in Canada to 'exercise due caution and remain vigilant' amid a spike in hate crimes, sectarian violence and anti-India activities. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said Indian missions in Canada have taken up these incidents with the Canadian authorities and requested them to probe these crimes.
"In view of the increasing incidences of crimes as described above, Indian nationals and students from India in Canada and those proceeding to Canada for travel/education are advised to exercise due caution and remain vigilant," the Ministry of External Affairs said.
The advisory from the foreign ministry comes at a time when a row has erupted between India and Canada over the recent holding of a so-called referendum by 'pro-Khalistan' elements on creating an independent homeland for Sikhs. India termed the so-called Khalistan referendum conducted by separatist groups as a 'farcical exercise'.We would term it as farcical exercise. A farcical exercise was held by extremists and radical elements supporting the so-called Khalistan referendum in Canada," MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said. He said India has taken up the issue with Canadian authorities and they reiterated respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India.
