The Canadian Parliament observed a moment of silence to commemorate the first anniversary of Hardeep Singh Nijjar's death. Nijjar was recognized for his association with Khalistani separatism. Social media users slammed the Canadian government and PM Justin Trudeau for backing the separatist.
 

The Canadian Parliament held a minute of silence to mark the first anniversary of the death of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, known for his involvement in Khalistani separatism on Tuesday (June 18). 

In June 2023, Hardeep Singh Nijjar, previously designated as a terrorist by India's National Investigation Agency in 2020, was fatally shot outside a Gurdwara in Surrey. His death escalated tensions between India and Canada, exacerbated when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau suggested the possible involvement of Indian agents in the killing.
