Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney have reached an agreement to fully restore diplomatic services, signaling a new phase in the relationship between India and Canada. The decision was made during their meeting on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Alberta. The two leaders met to discuss key areas of collaboration and ways to enhance bilateral ties. This agreement comes after a difficult period of strained relations, primarily caused by the killing of Khalistani separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in 2023. The move is expected to remove barriers in travel, trade, and educational exchanges. Prime Minister Modi emphasized the importance of a strong partnership and its advantages for both nations, focusing on cooperation in areas like trade, energy, and space. This meeting is considered a positive step toward the improvement of the strained relationship.
