Sikh groups plan protests during PM Modi's G7 visit to Canada
LONDON: Sikh groups tied to the Khalistan movement are preparing a wave of protests against PM Narendra Modi during his visit to Canada for the G7 summit at Kananaskis in Alberta from June 15 to 17. Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), a banned outfit leading an unofficial global Khalistan referendum, released a video vowing to 'ambush Modi politics from landing to take-off'. SFJ's general counsel Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, designated a terrorist by India, accused Modi of exporting 'transnational terrorism from Pakistan to Canada'. 'I want to thank Mark Carney — more of a businessman than a Canadian PM — for giving pro-Khalistan Sikhs a historic opportunity to ambush Modi's politics right in front of G7 nations,' Pannun said in the video. SFJ claimed the protests aim to force G7 nations to hold Modi accountable for the assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian citizen and Khalistan advocate killed last June, as well as an alleged 'murder-for-hire' plot targeting referendum organisers. Pannun also accused India of unleashing Operation Sindoor, which he described using Pakistani terminology as a 'terror attack on Pakistan targeting masjids'. India conducted precision airstrikes under Operation Sindoor on sites tied to Pakistan-backed terrorism, a fortnight after the April 22 terrorist attack in J&K's Pahalgam that claimed 26 lives — all men, mostly tourists. Sikh Federation Canada also condemned Modi's invitation, urging Ottawa to rescind it unless New Delhi cooperates with criminal probes linked to Nijjar's killing and other alleged transnational plots. The group demanded targeted sanctions on Indian brass, including Union home minister Amit Shah. It further called on Canada to 'publicly reaffirm that it will demand accountability from India for documented interference, violence, and assassination plots in Canada'. Canadian govt has yet to respond to the protest calls or the demand to revoke Modi's G7 invitation.

Bengal: ‘How can PM take credit for Operation Sindoor' — Hakim's remarks spark row, BJP says ‘insult'
KOLKATA MAYOR and State Urban Development and Municipal Affairs minister Firhad Hakim sparked a controversy on Saturday after his remarks targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi in connection with Operation Sindoor. The BJP reacted sharply, alleging that the TMC leader 'insulted' the PM and tried to 'downplay' Operation Sindoor. The TMC did not immediately respond to Hakim's remarks. While speaking to mediapersons, Hakim claimed, 'The Indian armed forces gave a befitting answer to Pakistan. How can the PM claim that he has done anything big? How can he take credit for Operation Sindoor?' In a post on X later on Saturday, the BJP wrote, 'Firhad Hakim — Mamata's loudest mouthpiece and the same man who once called parts of Kolkata 'mini Pakistan' — has now crossed every line. He downplayed Operation Sindoor, insulted PM Modi…this isn't political opposition — this is verbal treason. And Mamata Banerjee? Silent…' The BJP's state president Sukanta Majumdar said, 'Basically, Hakim has never taken a stance against Pakistan. During the erstwhile UPA government's tenure, no such steps were taken against Pakistan. That is why Hakim and some others are now finding it tough to accept that it was done.' Attaching a video of Hakim's purported remarks, BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya accused the senior TMC leader of making a 'disgraceful attack' on the PM.
