Security Adviser Ajit Doval embarked on a two-day trip to Canada, where he held talks with Nathalie Drouin, Deputy Clerk and Security and Intelligence Advisor to the Canadian Prime Minister, as part of a regular bilateral security dialogue between the two sides.
The talks between Doval and Drouin provided a clear reset in India-Canada ties and sent a clear message that violent extremist groups, such as the Khalistani-linked networks, do not enjoy the support of the Canadian government, top government sources told CNN-News18.
Sources said the talks focus on opening real-time intelligence sharing on drugs, cyber threats and extremism, with Khalistani-linked groups in focus. The discussions marked Ottawa’s shift from political posturing to law enforcement action on anti-India activities, sources informed.
