Amid tensions between India and Canada, new detail and information is being revealed about Justin Trudeau’s G20 stay in New Delhi.
The Canadian PM reportedly sent jitters through India’s intelligence machinery after his security personnel refused to let their “protectee" stay in the presidential suite.
According to a report in The Times of India, the suite had been specially furbished by the Indian security establishment as per security protocols laid down for heads of state for the G20 summit that concluded recently.
The report quoted sources in the security establishment as saying that the hotel, The Lalit in central Delhi, where Trudeau was staying had installed an advanced security shield comprising bulletproof glass with a thick layer of polycarbonate plastic which can even stop sniper bullets. Other security equipment were installed as well as part of a foolproof arrangement.
Trudeau’s delegation, however, decided not to stay in the suite. The report stated that the Canadian PM’s team instead opted for normal rooms, sending Indian security officials into a tizzy.
Multiple rounds of negotiations followed in the next few hours during which Indian sleuths insisted that the protocols be followed to help ensure security, the report stated, adding that they backed off after Trudeau’s delegation did not budge.
After all the negotiations, India allowed Trudeau to stay in a normal room as the “final call in such matters rests with the visitor dignitary and his embassy".
The details came to light on a day when Trudeau claimed that there is a ‘potential link’ between Indian government agents and the murder of pro-Khalistan terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June.
But isn't this Bizarre inspite of India doing their best and providing highest security, Trudeau choose to stay in a normal room, and then his flight being delayed because of apparent technical snag.
Sounds fishy!
