India conveys dismay over PM Trudeau’s remarks on farmers’ stir, says 'such action would have serious impact on ties'

The Ministry of External Affairs on Friday summoned Canadian High Commissioner and conveyed its displeasure over comments made by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other leaders there on issues relating to ongoing farmers' protests. "Canadian High Commissioner was summoned to Ministry of External Affairs today and informed that comments by Canadian Prime Minister, some Cabinet Ministers and Members of Parliament on issues relating to Indian farmers constitute unacceptable interference in our internal affairs," the MEA said. The ministry further said that such actions, if continued, would have a "seriously damaging impact" on ties between India and Canada.
