<p>Former prime minister and chief of the ruling Pakistan Muslim League (N) party Nawaz Sharif on Thursday (Oct 17) said the visit by the Indian foreign minister to Islamabad was an opportunity for both South Asian neighbours to break the ice.

India-Canada Row: India Accuses Trudeau Of Damaging Ties

<p>Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Monday (Oct 14) that the Indian government was “attacking me” personally and the integrity of the government of Canada over Ottawa’s move to link the death of a Sikh separatist leader last year to New Delhi. He voiced strong concerns over "clear and compelling evidence" of the involvement of the agents of India in activities threatening public safety. However, the Indian foreign ministry said earlier on Monday that Ottawa had not shared "a shred of evidence" with the Indian government despite several requests.</p>

<p>In a major downturn for already tensed India-Canada ties, New Delhi expelled six Canadian diplomats on Monday and withdrew its diplomats from Ottawa.</p>

<p>"India was possibly, if not probably, behind Nijjar's killing," Trudeau remarked.</p>

<h2><strong>Allegations by Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP)&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) alleged that the Indian government was collaborating with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang to harm public safety on Canadian soil.</p>

<p>The allegations come at a time when the gang is already making headlines in India over the death of don-turned-politician Baba Siddique in Mumbai.</p>

<p>“What we have seen is the use of organised crime elements, and it’s been publicly attributed to one organised crime gang in particular the Bishnoi group is connected to the agents of India,” RCMP Assistant Commissioner Brigitte Gaubin said in a press conference in Ottawa on Monday.</p>

<h2><strong>Canada shared info with Five Eyes partners</strong></h2>

<p>According to media reports, Canada has shared relevant info regarding the allegations against India with its Five Eyes partners.</p>

<p>“From the beginning, as of last summer, we've worked closely with our Five Eyes partners, particularly with the United States, where they have gone through a similar pattern of behaviour from India in regards to an attempted extrajudicial killing,” Trudeau said in a press conference.</p>

UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy on a two-day visit to India

<p>New Delhi on Saturday (Jul 20) dismissed reports&nbsp;that claimed Turkey has imposed a ban on defence exports to India as 'disinformation'. A spokesperson for the Ministry for External Affairs (MEA) said, "It is disinformation at best". Earlier, several media reports claimed Turkey&nbsp;had taken the step to strengthen its ties with India's arch-rival, Pakistan. The reports claimed that Ankara was irked after New Delhi in April ended a contract with a Turkish firm involved in a $2 billion shipbuilding project.</p>

<h2><strong>India's response</strong></h2>

<p>In response&nbsp;to the claims, Randhir Jaiswal, the official spokesperson of the MEA, said: "As far as my knowledge is concerned and information is concerned, that information is not good. So I will refer you to please take that question to the Turkish Embassy who can for short give you an answer because it is a post which generated in Turkey. To my understanding, to the best of my knowledge, it is disinformation at best."</p>

<h2><strong>No announcement from Turkey</strong></h2>

<p>Notably, the Turkish government has made no official announcement regarding this. But, a top executive of Turkish top arms procurement agency is said to have informed their lawmakers that Ankara has refrained from approving the sale of any military article to its customers in India.</p>

<p>"Due to our political circumstances and our friendship with Pakistan, our Ministry of Foreign Affairs does not give us positive feedback on exporting any products to India, and consequently, we do not grant any permits to our companies in this regard,” the executive reportedly told Turkish lawmakers.</p>
