The Canadian intelligence agency has made these comments at a time when Ottawa's relations with both India and China are bad.

Canadian spy agency has alleged that India and China might interfere in Canada's upcoming general elections on April 28, while Russia and Pakistan also have the potential to do the same.

The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) made these remarks at a time when Ottawa's ties with New Delhi are at an all-time low due to Canada's actions and allegations against India alleging its involvment in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

India has previously denied the allegations of interference, while China has also issued a similar denial.

Canadian Security Intelligence Service deputy director, Vanessa Lloyd, said that hostile state actors were increasingly leveraging artificial intelligence to meddle in elections.
