Indian diplomats, including High Commissioner Sanjay Kumar Verma, will receive enhanced security upon their return from Canada due to threats from pro-Khalistan elements. Verma, along with five officials, is being targeted by the separatist group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), which offered $500,000 to track his movements. SFJ alleges Verma’s involvement in the killing of Khalistani leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar. The threats come after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused Indian agents of links to Nijjar’s murder. India is also considering restricting Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) cards for Canadians suspected of supporting pro-Khalistan activities.
