Canadian MP Chandra Arya has raised concerns over the resurgence of Khalistani extremism in Canada ahead of the 39th anniversary of the Air India Flight 182 bombing. Arya condemned recent demonstrations and celebrations by Khalistani supporters, citing the assassination of former Indian PM Indira Gandhi. He labeled these acts as signs of renewed "dark forces" promoting violence. The MP's remarks underscore ongoing tensions and preparations for memorial services honoring the 1985 tragedy's victims, organized by the Indian Consulate General in Toronto, amid diplomatic strains between India and Canada.
