Amid rising diplomatic tension between India and Canada, and India suspending Canadian Visa Services, finally after a month, India on Wednesday resumed visa services to Canadians for select categories.

Visa services will be resumed partially, services will only be resumed for entry visa, business visa, medical visa, and conference visa, as the High Commission posted on X.

"Further decisions, as appropriate, would be intimated based on continuing evaluation of the situation," read the media statement from the High Commission.

On Sunday, foreign minister S Jaishankar said visa services to Canada could resume if India sees progress in the safety of Indian diplomats in Canada. It had attributed the suspension to "safety and security considerations" -- a point the media statement underscored.

"If we see progress in safety of our diplomats in Canada, we would like to resume issuance of visas there," Mr Jaishankar said on Sunday.

The visa services were suspended towards September-end as ties between the two nations faced severe strain following Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's allegations of "potential" involvement of Indian agents in the killing of a Canadian citizen, Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was the chief of the banned Khalistan Tiger Force and one of India's most wanted terrorists.
