Pro-Khalistan groups staged protests near Indian consulates in Toronto and Vancouver, Canada, following the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, deemed a terrorist in India. Despite their efforts, both consulates remained unaffected as they were closed for the weekend. Police presence kept protesters at bay, with limited impact on operations. The protests, organized by separatist group Sikhs for Justice, aimed to avenge Nijjar's assassination. Meanwhile, High Commissioner Sanjay Kumar Verma addressed an event in Surrey, where RCMP blocked entrances amid fiery exchanges with protesters. Verma later described the event as well-attended and covered various topics.
