OTTAWA: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau acknowledged in a statement to the Canadian Foreign Affairs Committee on Wednesday that his government had received intelligence but had no concrete evidence.
After Trudeau's confession, the Indian Foreign Ministry responded late the same day, saying, “This is what we have heard so far.” After this, an official statement issued on Thursday said, “We have already been saying continuously that Canada has not provided any concrete evidence in that (Hardeep Singh murder case) case.” Now the Prime Minister of Canada himself has admitted that he does not have any concrete evidence (of the Hardeep Singh murder case). So what we were saying earlier has now been proven true.
It is well known that Canada has accused the Indian Government and the Indian Embassy staff in Canada of involvement in the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
Regarding this, Indian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal, in response to a question asked on Justin Trudeau's statement in a press conference on Thursday, said, 'What we heard today is what we were already saying, Canada has not made any comment on this. No concrete evidence has been given. He has confirmed the allegations. He has directly accused the Indian government and Indian diplomats. Therefore, Trudeau is fully responsible for the damage caused to India's image by behaving like a mounted warrior.
However, Trudeau reversed his position and said that Indian embassy staff, who are opposed to the Narendra Modi government, collect information and then send it to the Delhi-Indian government, which directly reaches the highest level.
Naturally, the Indian government has also rejected these allegations of Trudeau.
