Senior U.S. officials held a meeting with Sikh activists to address threats facing the Sikh community in the United States, including a foiled murder plot against Gurpatwant Singh Pannun last year. The discussions involved White House and U.S. intelligence officials and occurred just days before President Joe Biden's scheduled meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The U.S. has urged India to investigate the alleged murder plot against Pannun, a dual U.S.-Canada citizen, while continuing its own criminal investigation into potential Indian involvement. This meeting highlights ongoing concerns about the safety of Sikhs in the U.S. and international relations.
