The US has called for accountability from India after allegations surfaced regarding a former RAW officer's involvement in a plot to assassinate Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun on American soil. India refuted the claims, stating they were unwarranted and unsubstantiated. The report suggested the officer, identified as Vikram Yadav, hired a hit team to target Pannun. US federal prosecutors previously charged Indian national Nikhil Gupta in connection with the foiled plot. Pannun, designated as a terrorist by India, holds dual citizenship. The case remains under investigation by a high-level Indian inquiry committee.
