Indian High Commissioner Sanjay Kumar Verma, who was recalled from Canada over the India-Canada dispute, narrated the horrifying story of Canada. He said that suddenly I don't know what happened and declared us as unwanted persons. He said that I was in a city in Alberta, where people of Indian origin had organized a dinner. Which was a cultural event and it was also a business event. In which Canadian businessmen were also present. A program was going on in the convention hall and there were around 150 people outside, who were doing obscene acts in the name of Khalistan.
Recalling the frightening moment in Canada, he said that yes once or twice they came very close to physically harming us. He had a sword, it was not a saber. Along with this he said that when I was in Alberta, a sword had come close to 2-2.5 inches of my body.

double standards called hypocrisy
On Pakistan's role in promoting Khalistani elements, Sanjay Kumar Verma said that we know and understand that Pakistani agencies have close ties with Pakistani extremists and terrorists. We can see examples of terrorists who were living in Pakistan. Yes, there are global connections. I have no doubt that these global connections will be valid for Canada as well.
He said that we are a responsible democracy. It is not our policy to interfere in the internal affairs of any country. Expressing sadness over this matter, Verma said that it was sad because I had gone there to further improve the relations between the two countries, but allegations were made against me, I also feel that if my countrymen If my interests are harmed then it is my duty to protect my country.
He said that if you look at the entire episode and we have always said that no evidence has been shared with us, I think it is largely politically motivated and India has been unfairly targeted. . Indian High Commissioner Sanjay Kumar Verma said, “As an elected leader, Mr. Trudeau is at the helm of all Canadian affairs. If I don't see a favorable outcome for Canada-India relations, I will blame that person.” I will establish who is at the helm of affairs.
Trudeau was targeted
It is noteworthy that in this case, Sanjay Kumar Verma had said in his statement that Khalistanis are used as strategic assets by Canadian intelligence agencies. As Canadian PM Justin Trudeau stood in Parliament and accused Indian government agents of plotting an assassination on Canadian soil. To which he said that I also said in the same way that Khalistani terrorists and extremists are deep assets of the Canadian intelligence agency.
