After more than a month of suspension due to a diplomatic dispute related to the killing of a Sikh separatist, India announced on Wednesday that it will resume some visa services in Canada, effective from Thursday, according to agency reports.

The decision to reinstate visa services, which includes entry visas, business visas, medical visas, and conference visas, from October 26, 2023, was made after a thorough assessment of the security situation, taking into account recent measures taken by the Canadian authorities, according to a press release posted by the High Commission of India in Ottawa on its social media platforms.
