Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was stuck in India for two days now owing to the technical glitch in his aircraft.

Although India has offered Trudeau the service of Air India, as reported by the news agency ANI.

But the report said the Canadian side declined that offer and instead chose to wait for the backup.

Trudeau and his team were supposed to fly out of India on Sunday evening, after the conclusion of the G-20 event in New Delhi but he could do so finally on Tuesday afternoon after the replacement arrived.

The report that the Canadian side declined India's offer comes amid India-Canada ties turning frosty over the Khalistan issue.

PM Modi in his bilateral meeting with Trudeau on the sidelines of the G20 summit raised the Khalistan issue and told Truedau that mutual respect and trust are essential for progress in bilateral ties. While PM Modi expressed concerns, Sikhs for Justice arranged a Khalistan referendum at a gurdwara in British Columbia.

Relations between India and Canada have been tense over a range of issues, including a decision by Ottawa earlier this month to pause talks on a proposed trade treaty with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government.

Union minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar was deputed to receive and see off him.

Both Trudeau and his son Xavier stayed at Hotel Lalit for the entire extended trip.

Xavier Trudeau accompanied Justin Trudeau on his visit to Jakarta where the Canadian PM attended the ASEAN-Canada summit.
