Jaishankar respond to the murder of Nijjar

In response to claims that intelligence on the murder of Hardeep Nijjar was shared among the Five Eyes, external affairs minister S. Jaishankar reaffirmed that India did not get any specific information.

When asked about his reaction to claims that intelligence was shared among the Five Eyes and reports that the FBI had informed US Sikh leaders that there were threats, a journalist at the Council on Foreign Relations in the US questioned Jaishankar. Jaishankar responded, “I am not part of the Five Eyes. I am not definitely a member of the FBI. So, you’re approaching the incorrect party.

The United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and The Five Eyes are five nations that collaborate on intelligence. The second half of the query was based on claims that several Sikh leaders in the US. It alleged that the FBI had alerted them to threats against their lives following the death of Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada. Indian involvement in the murder, according to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, sparked a significant diplomatic crisis between India and Canada.

Jaishankar clarified

In his reply, Jaishankar again clarified India’s stand and reiterated that if Canada has something specific, they should inform India.

At the event, Jaishankar spoke about the India-Canada issue and said India has told Canada that this is not the policy of the Indian government and that Canada should share with India if they have something specific. “In the last few years, Candana has actually seen a lot of organised crime relating to secessionist forces. Organised crime, violence and extremism are all very, very deeply mixed up. In fact, India has been talking about specifics and information. 

Regarding organized crime and known terrorist leaders, we have been harping on Canada. You must consider the local environment if you want to comprehend what is happening there. Our worry is that because of the political climate, it has actually been relatively permissive. Diplomats have been threatened, and consulates have been attacked, according to Jaishankar.

“A lot of this is frequently explained away by claiming that’s how democracies operate. It need not be limited to Canada if someone gives me something particular. However, as a government, I would take a look at it if there was any incidence that was a problem. Someone gave me something particular, Jaishankar added.
