India-Canada row: Nijjar gambit backfires on Justin Trudeau

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s attempts to accuse India of involvement in the unsolved murder of a Khalistani radical are backfiring. Trudeau’s allegations are drawing attention to his government’s support from a pro-Khalistan Sikh leader and its harboring of extremists. Despite canvassing support from various countries at the United Nations, Trudeau has failed to provide evidence for his claims. His domestic standing is suffering as his approval ratings drop.
