US Indictment of Indian National: What Lies Ahead
Published 2 years, 5 months ago
Description
On November 29, 2023, the US Department of Justice indicted an Indian national Nikhil Gupta in a foiled assassination attempt of a US citizen in New York. The purported target is a Khalistani separatist leader Gurpatwant Singh Pannun. This comes a mere two months after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused India of killing Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a listed Khalistani terrorist, on Canadian soil. What does the US indictment mean for relations between Washington and New Delhi? Takshashila Institution's Sachin Kalbag and Yusuf Unjhawala discuss the aftermath (spoiler alert: it won't impact much).
