India has resumed electronic visa services for Canadian nationals after a nearly two-month pause.
Visa services had been suspended on September 21st amid the ongoing diplomatic row over Canada’s claims that agents of the Indian government were involved in the June killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian citizen, in that country.
After resumption, all visa services including tourist visas have now resumed. Services for business and medical visas, had already resumed last month.
In September, India had suspended issue of visas to Canadian citizens till further notice.
This was after the two countries traded diplomatic barbs, including expelling a senior diplomat each and India forcing parity in the number of senior officials deputed to missions in each country.
