Citizens Are Aware and Should “Keep Low Profile” in These Indian Cities, Canada Urges

Only hours after the government closed the majority of its embassies and consulates in India and withdrew 41 diplomats, Canada modified its travel advice for its citizens there, advising them to “exercise a high degree of caution”. The action is being taken in the midst of a savage dispute between the two nations over the death of a terrorist from Khalistani that was killed in Canada.

The Canadian advice stated, “Be extremely cautious when traveling in India due to the possibility of terrorist attacks occurring anywhere in the nation.”

“There are calls for protests and some bad feelings towards Canada in traditional media and on social media in light of recent developments in Canada and India. There could be protests, including anti-Canada demonstrations, and harassing or intimidating behavior directed towards Canadians. You should avoid giving out personal information to strangers in Delhi and the National Capital Region and keep a low profile with them, the advice continued.

After the Center threatened to revoke their diplomatic immunity, Canada evacuated 41 diplomats and their families from India earlier today.
Additionally, Canada advised its residents in Mumbai, Chandigarh, and Bengaluru to use caution and suspended all in-person services at the consulates in these three cities. In the event that they require assistance, all Canadians residing in India are asked to get in touch with the High Commission in New Delhi.

“Be extremely cautious when in and around Mumbai, Chandigarh, and Bengaluru. In-person consular services are temporarily unavailable in such cities and their environs, according to the advice.

Pickpocketing and purse snatching are examples of popular small-time crimes. The advice warned residents not to carry significant amounts of cash and to exercise caution in crowded situations as thieves may target foreigners, particularly in big cities and popular tourist destinations.

Since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau openly connected Indian intelligence to the death of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar last month, ties between India and Canada have deteriorated dramatically.

India has referred to the accusations as “motivated” and “absurd”. Senior diplomats on both sides have been dismissed, and travel advisories have been issued, as the diplomatic dispute has the potential to escalate into a major conflict.
