What happened?
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau resigns amid falling approval ratings and internal divisions within the Liberal Party.
Why it matters to India:
Trudeau’s resignation follows controversial claims about India’s involvement in the killing of Khalistan terrorist and Canadian citizen Hardeep Singh Nijjar, which sparked severe diplomatic fallout and strained international relations. The Liberal Party in Canada now faces a crucial decision to either appoint an interim leader or hold a leadership contest to determine its future direction. The resignation signals a significant political shift in Canada, with potential implications for the country’s domestic policies and foreign relations.
