It further stated that people could get more consular information and help from the Canadian High Commission in New Delhi.

The diplomats were forced to leave the country after receiving an ultimatum from New Delhi that they would lose their diplomatic immunity if they stayed past Friday. According to Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly, all in-person services at consulates must now temporarily cease until further notice.”Recent developments in Canada and India” were mentioned in the warning under the Safety and Security heading. It continued that protest requests and some unfavourable remarks against Canada can be found in both traditional and social media.

Keep a low profile and avoid disclosing personal information to strangers in Delhi and the National Capital Region. Steer clear of congested areas, particularly transit. Always take a companion, and let a friend or family member know where you’re going.After Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on September 18 that there were “credible allegations” of a probable link to Indian operatives in the killing of Khalistani politician Hardeep Singh Nijjar on June 18, India stopped processing visas for Canadians indefinitely.
