India-Canada row: 'Freedom of expression can’t justify threats...

Oct 16,2024

Amid the ongoing dispute between India and Canada, Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri expressed disbelief that, in the name of freedom of expression, anyone would be allowed to issue threats to Indian representatives in Canada. Speaking at an event in the national capital on October 15, Puri recalled the 1984 assassination of Indian diplomat Ravindra Mhatre in the UK, emphasising that the safety of any representative should be a concern for all governments. He noted that the statement issued by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) had filled him with pride.
