This development is occurring in the midst of an escalating diplomatic standoff, which recently resulted in the expulsion of over 40 Canadian diplomats from New Delhi. In a press release issued by the High Commission of India in Ottawa, it has been disclosed that their consulates general in Toronto and Vancouver have collectively decided to reinstate visa services.

As per the official Press Release issued by Indian authorities, “The High Commission of India in Ottawa and its Consulates General in Toronto and Vancouver were constrained to suspend visa services temporarily because of safety and security considerations.
