After being accused of plotting the murder of Sikh separatist leader Gurpatwant Singh Pannu in America, Indian Prime Minister Modi has given his statement for the first time. Prime Minister Modi said that if they get evidence, he will definitely look into it, but some incidents cannot affect the relationship between the US and India.

In an interview to The Financial Times, Modi said, "If anyone gives us information, we will definitely investigate it. We have full commitment to the law." Meanwhile, Modi also expressed serious concern over the activities of some extremist groups in foreign countries.

It is to be noted that the US says that Nikhil Gupta, who was arrested in the case of this alleged conspiracy, was ordered to do so by an Indian official.

However, the court documents did not reveal the name of the person who was to be killed but said that the person who was to be targeted was an associate of Hardeep Singh Nijjar .
