India has announced the resumption of visa services for Canadian citizens, bringing an end to a diplomatic disagreement that arose after the killing of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada. The move comes as a relief to the Canadian government and its citizens.

After a month-long ban, India stated that it would start reissuing visas for entry, business, medical, and conferences, effective immediately. The Indian High Commission, along with India's consulates in Toronto and Vancouver, will continue to handle emergency services.

Canadian Emergency Preparedness Minister Harjit Sajjan expressed his satisfaction, describing the decision as "good news for Canadians."

The dispute between India and Canada originated when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused Delhi of possible involvement in the assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was shot dead by masked attackers outside a Sikh temple near Vancouver on June 18.

India had long contended that Nijjar, an Indian-born individual who supported an independent Sikh state within India, had links to terrorism, although Nijjar himself vehemently denied these charges.

In response to Trudeau's accusations, India strongly denied any connection to the murder and dismissed the claims as "absurd" and politically motivated.

The suspension of visa services was seen as a significant escalation of tensions between the two countries. Canada is home to a sizable population of Indian origin, including 777,000 Sikhs, making it the largest Sikh community outside of India. The Sikh separatist campaign, advocating for a breakaway state called Khalistan in Punjab and other Punjabi-speaking regions, has gained considerable support among the Indian diaspora, particularly in Canada.

India has accused Canada of tolerating Sikh separatist activities it considers "extremist" and has accused the country of providing a "safe haven" for "terrorists" and "criminals." Trudeau, in September, remarked on the "credible allegations" of Indian government involvement in Nijjar's murder, emphasizing that such interference in Canadian affairs is unacceptable.

India, while rejecting the allegations, has remained open to investigating any "specific" or "relevant" information provided by Canada regarding the case. Canada, alongside its ally, the United States, has called on India to fully cooperate in the ongoing investigation.

In addition to the visa service suspension, India had warned Canada that it planned to strip immunity from 41 diplomats, leading Canada to recall 41 of the 62 diplomats it had stationed in India. India's stance on recalling the diplomats was to maintain an equal diplomatic presence between the two nations.

The resumption of visa services signifies a positive step in resolving the diplomatic dispute between India and Canada. Diplomatic channels remain open, allowing for continued cooperation in the investigation. Both countries now hope for a swift resolution and the reestablishment of a favorable bilateral relationship.
