    IMO that movement has many of the hallmarks of being a propped up US/western destabilization and balkanization operation much like their support for that terrorist movement in Xinjiang in China. Their support is lower key perhaps because they want to maintain good relations against India to use it against China but it’s still there.

      It’s possible but if that is the case, the Indian state’s and news’ narrative of it does not consider that angle at all. The closest we have come to this is the discussion around the fact that Canada has a large Sikh community and would not let India wantonly assassinate them. Besides this, the movement is just painted as TERRORIST without any further explanation ignoring the common trend of Indian administration of othering the communities that are not upper caste North Indian Hindus.
