Indian foreign ministry claims ‘security threats’ after Trudeau’s explosive allegation of state-sponsored killing mean it cannot provide visa services safely
India says it is indefinitely suspending visa services in all categories for all Canadian nationals due to “security threats” to its consulates, amid a furious diplomatic row between the two countries.
Indian foreign ministry spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said they have suspended “all categories” of visas, including e-visas and for Canadian citizens applying from third countries.
And India has also moved to downsize the Canadian diplomatic presence in New Delhi, saying that Canada has more embassy workers in its capital than visa versa and that it wants to restore “parity”.
It comes after Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau said there were “credible allegations” of the Indian state’s involvement in the murder of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada, triggering a furious tit-for-tat row.
Its funny coz I think Modi thinks people are dying to visit India.🤣🤣 its like Taliban thinking Afghanistan is the most developed country in the world.🤣🤣🤣

Indian here. You should know the holiness of a place here is proportional to the amounth of filth around it /s. And dont visit Ganges plains. South is fine and so is Himalaya and north east. Avoid the cow belt.
Modi likes to pose macho especially when his followers like it. A bit of like Elon Musk if you ask me. He never said a thing about Chinese trangession in North East where we lost land. But he found soft targets in Canadians.
“Modi likes to pose macho” I had no idea he did these antics too, but it’s not surprising, every authoritarian conservative likes to pose as a strongman. Putin, Xi, Trump, Bolsonaro…
Enjoy a sunset paddleboat ride down the Ganges, just nudge the floating corpses out the way.
You joke but a friend went there, and he showed me literal pictures of floating corpses in the ganges

Don’t know if you have ever visited the US, but I was not expecting what we found. Worst was the constant begging. People tapping on the windows of the car when we stopped at intersections, chasing us around shopping centres and along streets, and begging on train stations, expecting “tips” for returning a bag they had stolen out of my hand (sometimes, jetlag didn’t help me be fast enough) or “tips” for giving directions I didn’t want, need, or ask for. They constantly expected money to be handed to them.
It was shocking how the roads were broken, the shops had no electronic payment, the coins were worth practically nothing, the paper money was literally paper scrip and not holographic or durable, and the buildings were rotting apart. People were dying on the footpaths. Crowds of dirty people. Rubbish everywhere. But worst was the begging.
Oddly, Canada isn’t like that. If you ever visited the US, India is similar, but not unexpected the way the US is.
Yeah for real, there are few countries I never ever want to visit, India is one of them
As they should, India is an amazing and very unique country
Why on Earth am I being downvoted. You guys need to leave your basement once in a while
Only Indians think that.
I am about as Indian as you are Nigerian
I didn’t downvote, but nothing is “very unique” for the same reason that nobody is “very pregnant”.
Either it is unique or it is not.
I disagree.
“Very” unique indicates being unique in more ways and/or in more severe ways.
Similarly, being “very pregnant” would be at about eight months or perhaps carrying more than one child. In the present of someone that is a month pregnant, it may hardly impact their day to day living, and you can’t tell.
Yes, technically the words are Boolean, but the reality makes sense.
The term you’re looking for is “very unusual”.
LOL, ok now say to a pregnant woman, “I don’t think you’re very pregnant”. Please report back to us with her response.
Perhaps you haven’t heard or read those before, but they’re very much valid (😉). The downvotes are overwhelming and can’t possibly -imho- reflect disagreement over my wording. I’m pretty sure it has to do with India, but I don’t know why. Is there a particular anti-India sentiment I didn’t know about ?
Well, there is definitely an anti-assassination sentiment. Probably why Saudi Arabia doesn’t get much love either.
India is fuckin incredible, what makes you think anyone is lining up to visit Canada?
Lol
There are enough incredible countries where you don’t have to worry about perverts and being raped as a woman.
Come to Singapore, we have the Indian culture (among others), and we’re the diametric opposite of India where it comes to safety in all aspects. 😉
Singapore is on my bucket list
🥰 Singapore! So diverse and friendly people.
Brother at least put some effort into it.
