said indian agents may have been involved in the killing of a canadian sikh activist. he was shot dead in june near vancouver. just now, mr trudeau doubled down on that claim. india described the accusation as absurd . it also said canada can expect its number of diplomats in india to be reduced. india s foreign ministry spokesman was asked how the dispute was affecting india s reputation. one, any country that needs to look at this, i think it is canada and its growing reputation as a place, as a safe haven for terrorists, for extremists and for organised crime. and i think that s a country that needs to worry about its international reputation. at the heart of this issue are calls for an independent homeland for sikhs in india s northern state of punjab. it s known as the khalistan movement. sikhs form a majority of punjab s population, but are a minority in the rest of india. there have been calls for an independent state to be formed there for some time, with the m ....
