Congress MP Ravneet Singh Bittu strongly criticised Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun and urged the Ministry of External Affairs to build a robust case in the US and Canada to bring the extremist perpetrators to justice.
Raising the issue in the Lok Sabha on Monday, the Ludhiana MP cited the 1985 Kanishka Air India bombings, highlighting that Canadian authorities ‘ignored’ inputs shared by India.
He also stressed that ‘one-way traffic’ is detrimental to bilateral relations between two countries.
Bittu stated, ‘The FBI Director is visiting India this week… there are many conventions in diplomatic and bilateral relations. We respect and value our country, but how will it work in the case of one-way traffic?’
Referring to India’s efforts in sending extradition requests for extremists, he expressed frustration, saying, ‘I have failed to understand that India has sent 26 extradition requests… but they are demanding perfect proof, absolute proof. Now, we don’t have any idea what proof they are talking about.
