New Delhi: The Hindu community in Canada has implored the Trudeau government to take immediate action against Khalistani leader Gurpatwant Singh Pannun for openly endorsing Hamas and issuing threats against Indian Consulates in G7 nations, including Canada.

In an urgent email on Thursday addressed to Canada’s Minister of Public Safety Dominic LeBlanc, the Hindu Forum of Canada (HFC) has called for immediate action against Pannun.

The designated terrorist known for his involvement in Khalistani activities has openly threatened to shut down Indian Consulates in G7 nations, which includes Canada.

“Such statements must not be tolerated. We implore the government of Canada to take immediate action, as we are deeply concerned about the safety of our community. This kind of hateful video and speech is exacerbating hatred and violence,” the HFC said.

The Hindu Forum of Canada, in their appeal to Minister LeBlanc, has requested that if Gurpatwant Singh Pannun is not a Canadian citizen, his entry to Canada be barred. If he is indeed a Canadian citizen, they have urged that he be thoroughly investigated and, if necessary, charged in connection with hate crimes, given the nature of his statements and threats.

In response to recent posters put up by Khalistani groups in Canada that feature the EAM S Jaishankar’s image alongside that of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and call for their assassination, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs has upgraded the security of External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar to Z category, according to ANI.
