India's Ministry of External Affairs dismissed Canadian Security Intelligence Service's (CSIS) allegations of Indian interference in Canadian elections, asserting it's not India's policy to interfere in other countries' democratic processes. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal stated Canada has been meddling in India's internal affairs. The statement follows a declassified document citing India as a concern for foreign interference. Tensions between the two nations have escalated, notably over allegations regarding the killing of Khalistani separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar. India suspended visas for Canadians after Trudeau's claims, leading to diplomatic strains and stalled trade negotiations.
