New Delhi: The noose around the Khalistanis is tightening with India and Canada strengthening security cooperation. The first sign of a reset was following a meeting of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Canadian counterpart, Mark Carney.

This meeting set off a series of meetings between officials of both countries — a high-level meeting of the National Security Advisor (NSA) and his Canadian counterpart, Nathalie Drouin. The resetting of ties resulted in Canada listing the Lawrence Bishnoi gang as a terrorist entity. While doing so, Canada said that the gang created a climate of fear and intimidation. For India, this is a major decision since these are the gangs that are linked to the Khalistan elements.
