Western countries, driven by their economic and geopolitical interests have often overlooked India’s persecution of minorities, curbs on media and even support for terrorist activities on foreign countries. Despite the diplomatic row between Canada and India regarding the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, another Sikh activist Sukhdool Singh was killed in Winnipeg, Canada. With geo-economic and geopolitical interests at stake, all member countries in these alliances are faced with a difficult situation. India, however, strengthened by such acts in its neighborhood, has unwittingly violated this order by killing a Canadian citizen. Canada is also being supported by the US and other Western countries in an effort to protect their value system.
