Amid escalating tensions, India has urged its citizens and students in Canada to exercise caution due to rising anti-India activities and hate crimes. This comes as India-Canada relations deteriorate over the Hardeep Singh Nijjar killing row. India has advised registering with the High Commission in Ottawa or Consulates in Toronto and Vancouver via their websites or the MADAD portal. MADAD allows seamless connectivity between consulates and Indian citizens in emergencies. With over 300,000 Indian students in Canada, India wants them to stay vigilant and use MADAD for safety. The advisory highlights India's concerns about security risks for Indians as diplomatic ties with Canada worsen.
