Canada dismissed a media report alleging Prime Minister Narendra Modi's involvement in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, stating no evidence supports such claims. The report, citing an unnamed security official, accused Indian leaders of plotting Nijjar's murder. However, Canada's government clarified it had "no direct evidence" against Modi, Jaishankar, or NSA Ajit Doval. India's Ministry of External Affairs condemned the claims as "ludicrous" and damaging to diplomatic ties. Relations between the nations remain tense since Trudeau accused India of involvement in Nijjar's 2023 killing, which India denies, citing Canada's support for pro-Khalistan extremists.
