'Celebration' Of Indira Gandhi's Killing In Canada | India Slams 'Vote Bank' Politics | India Upfront

In this episode of India Upfront, host Rahul Shivshankar will discuss how in a recent video that went viral online, Gandhi was seen holding up her hands in the parade tableau while armed men in turbans aimed firearms at her while she was dressed in a blood-stained white saree. "Revenge" was written on a billboard behind the action. India has criticized Canada for permitting a float in a parade that depicted the 1984 killing of Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi by her bodyguards. This float was seen as a promotion of violence by Sikh separatists and India has criticized Canada for this. The tableau in the march was discussed by India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar with reporters in New Delhi. The incident at a Sikh activist procession in the Canadian city of Brampton was also denounced by the high commissioner of Canada in India. We are joined by a few panelists expressing their views on this issue. “Part of the responsibility also lies with us that we have kind of removed the deterrent against these elements,” stated Puneet Sahani, Author. #canada #greatertoronto #ontoria #formerprimeminister #indiragandhi #killingglorified #operationbluestar #prokhalistani #separatistleader #jarnailsinghbhindrawale #timesnowshow #indiaupfront #rahulshivshankar
