India stresses on ‘parity in mutual diplomatic presence’ as Canada suspends visa & consular services in Bengaluru, Chandigarh & Mumbai
Friday, 20 October 2023 Just hours after Canada scaled back its diplomatic presence in India, leading to the suspension of visa and in-person consular services in Bengaluru, Chandigarh, and Mumbai, India dismissed any insinuation that the move to establish diplomatic parity was in violation of international norms. In a statement released on Friday, the ministry of external affairs stated, "We acknowledge the statement made by the Canadian government on October 19 concerning their diplomatic presence in India. Given the state of our bilateral relations, the significantly higher number of Canadian diplomats stationed in India, and their ongoing involvement in our internal matters, it is justifiable to seek diplomatic parity in both New Delhi and Ottawa."

Canada has withdrawn 41 diplomats from India amid a diplomatic row over the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil. India planned to revoke diplomatic immunity for all but 21 of Canada's diplomats, prompting Ottawa to withdraw the remaining personnel. Relations between the two nations soured after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau linked Indian intelligence to Nijjar's killing, a claim India denied. The move to revoke diplomatic immunity for 41 diplomats is considered unprecedented and against international law.
