NEW DELHI: Congress Lok Sabha MP Ravneet Singh Bittu, whose grandfather, former Punjab CM Beant Singh was killed by pro-Khalistan extremists in a suicide bombing in 1995, has accused PM Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party of Canada of receiving funds from drug cartels run by Khalistani groups.
“The only reason that the Canadian government is still protecting the Khalistani terrorists is because Trudeau’s party earns money from all of their drug cartels,” said the Congress Lok Sabha whip to The New Indian.
He questioned: “Of the 10 terrorists’ names revealed by the National Investigation Agency, eight of them are living in Canada. What reason do you have for hiding our most wanted?”
The Congress lawmaker also alleged a pattern followed by PM Trudeau, as he attacked the lack of action taken by his father and former PM Pierre Trudeau, in the 1985 Air India bombing spearheaded by Khalistani terrorist Talwinder Parmar.
“In the plane’s bombing, over 300 people had died, and among them was my uncle. However, Justin’s father did not move an inch to provide us justice and take action against the Khalistanis,” he said.
The Congress MP also attacked US-based Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) chief Gurpatwant Singh Pannun on his efforts in trying to divide Sikhs and Hindus residing in India, while attacking his Sikhism that does not brandish a turban or a moustache.
“We (Sikhs) have been living in India since Guru Nanak Sahib’s time, and your empty sermons will not be able to divide Hindus and Sikhs,” he said.
However, Ravneet Singh asked through a letter, exclusively sourced by The New Indian, to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to practice extreme caution while blocking visas for Canadian travellers. In his letter, he highlighted the repercussions that may be felt by Indian students and citizens in Canada which may emerge from India’s decision to block visas for Canadian travellers.
“It is also possible that in response, Canada may introduce stricter immigration policies, which could make it more challenging for Indian students to receive Visa extensions,” the letter said.
Singh’s comments come at a time when the bilateral relations between India and Canada have hit rock bottom following Trudeau’s allegations that India could potentially be behind the murder of Khalistani leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
