Canada didn't invite India so far for the upcoming G7 summit scheduled to take place between June 15 and June 17 in Canada, according to The Tribune after citing official sources.
The sources told the Indian website: 'No advance preparations have been made ahead of a high-level dignitary visit such as that of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, making it clear that India will not participate in this year's G7 summit in Canada. PM Modi has attended the summit for the past six consecutive years, making this the first time India will be absent from the event."
Traditionally, the host country moderates guest invitations, agenda organization and the overall tone of the summit.
This allows the host to align the event with its priorities and foreign policy objectives.
The G7 comprises the world's most industrialised economies: the US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and Canada.
The European Union (EU), the IMF, the World Bank and the UN are also invited to attend.
This year's summit will be hosted by Canada.
The relationships between Canada and India have deteriorated following the killing of Khalistani separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada in June 2023.
Tensions escalated after then-Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused India of involvement in the incident, a claim India strongly rejected as 'baseless'.
Last month, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said on at least two occasions during briefings that there was 'no information' regarding PM Modi's visit to Canada for the G7 summit.
