Mark Carney, Canada’s Prime Minister, begins his four-day India sojourn amid warm receptions from Congress MP Pramod Tiwari, who hopes for concrete steps to safeguard Indians in Canada.
Emphasizing enduring bonds built by leaders such as Indira Gandhi, Nehru, Rajiv Gandhi, and Manmohan Singh, Tiwari painted a grim picture post-BJP ascendancy: NRIs in Canada live in fear due to targeted violence and permissive attitudes toward terror elements.
Tiwari looks forward to decisive outcomes from Modi-Carney dialogues, particularly firm anti-terrorism resolve and assurances of freedom and security for Indians overseas.
He also praised the bail for Indian Youth Congress President Uday Bhanu Chib in the AI protest case, hailing it as justice prevailing against BJP’s suppression of dissent and false cases.
Commenting on the Delhi Court’s excise policy exoneration of AAP leaders Kejriwal and Sisodia, Tiwari quipped about election timings in Gujarat and Punjab, accusing BJP of resource-driven flip-flops. Support was voiced for Pawan Khera’s detailed exposé.
This high-profile visit spotlights diaspora concerns and partisan legal battles, shaping India-Canada discourse.
