Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says that there has been a significant change in India's stance with Canada after the allegations of a conspiracy to kill a Sikh leader were exposed in America. In an interview, Trudeau said that with the US accusations, Modi feels a change in the government's tone. And perhaps India has now realized that it cannot go aggressively.

P. M. Trudeau's comments come at a time when India is cooperating with the US in the investigation and has said that it is also ready to investigate Canada's allegations if any concrete evidence is provided in this regard.

Let it be known that India has established a high-level commission of inquiry to investigate the conspiracy to kill Khalistan leader Gurpatwant Singh Pannu, which started its work on November 18.

Trudeau said that Canada does not want sour relations with India, we want to advance trade deals and the Indo-Pacific strategy, but it is a fundamental duty for Canada to stand up for the rights of its people, their security and that is what is being done.
