Amid rising tensions between India and Canada, the Trudeau government has increased security checks of travelers coming to India. Because of this, passengers have to go through strict security checks at the airport. According to Canadian news agency CBC, officials have not given a reason for increasing the security check.
Canada's Transport Minister Anita Anand has issued a statement saying that to take more precautions, her government has increased the security checks of passengers. Because of this, passengers may face delays in testing.
Last month, Khalistani terrorist and founder of Sikh for Justice Gurpatwant Singh Pannu had warned not to travel by Air India from 1 to 19 November. Terrorist Pannu had released the video and talked about taking revenge for the 1984 Sikh riots. It is feared that this security has been increased after that.
Passengers were called four hours before the flight The Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA) has been entrusted with the responsibility of increasing security checks at the airport. This includes checking of bags with X-ray machine and physical examination of passengers. Due to this the waiting time has increased. CATSA has sent a notification to passengers coming to India asking them to reach the airport at least four hours before the flight.
A few days ago, Pannu had released a video and appealed to her supporters to close Chandigarh Airport.
Pannu had also threatened a few days ago A few days ago, pro-Khalistan Sikh for Justice (SFJ) chief Gurpatwant Singh Pannu had written anti-national slogans on Airport Road Kumbra in Mohali, Punjab. In these slogans, PM Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah were described as 'Hindu terrorists'. Pannu released her video and called upon the Sikh youth to close Amritsar and Chandigarh airports in Punjab on November 17.
Pannu had also threatened last year Earlier, on November 4, 2023, Pannu had released a video and threatened to blow up Air India planes. Pannu had released a one-minute video saying not to travel in Air India flight on November 19. If you do this then your life may be in danger. Planes will not be allowed to fly.
After this, on November 19, he threatened to close Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi. He said that November 19 was the same day when the final of the Cricket World Cup was to be held.
After this, last year the NIA had registered a case against Pannu under sections 1208, 153A and 506 of the IPC and sections 10, 13, 16, 17, 18, 188 and 20 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), 1967. .
