Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has accused the Indian government of organizing the killing of the leader of the Sikh community in British Columbia, Hardeep Singh Nijjar, on June 18 of this year.

Speaking in the House of Commons, Trudeau said he raised the issue directly with Narendra Modi, the Indian prime minister, at the G20 summit this month. The allegation, which Trudeau said was based on intelligence gathered by the Canadian government, is likely to further strain relations between the two countries.

"Any involvement of a foreign government in the killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil is an unacceptable violation of our sovereignty. It is contrary to the basic rules by which free, open and democratic societies behave. We are working closely and coordinating with our allies on this very serious matter."

This month, Canada suspended negotiations on a trade deal with India. The community leader was shot near a Sikh temple. He had called for the creation of an independent Sikh nation that would include parts of India's Punjab state. India declared him a terrorist in 2020 for his alleged links to the Khalistan Tiger Force, a group campaigning for an independent Khalistan in India's Punjab region.

The reaction of the Indian government was also immediate, which expelled a senior Canadian diplomat a few hours after Canada expelled an Indian diplomat. India has strongly rejected Trudeau's allegations, calling them absurd and politically motivated. New Delhi's decision reflected growing concern over the interference of Canadian diplomats in domestic affairs and their involvement in activities against India, it said in a statement.
