Residents of the home village of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, the Sikh separatist in the centre of a raging diplomatic row between India and Canada, believe Ottawa's charge that Indian agents carried out his killing. The sleepy hamlet of Bharsingpura in the northern state of Punjab has been abuzz since Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made the bombshell allegation and demanded that India treat with "utmost seriousness" its claims about Nijjar's killing in June near Vancouver. Himmat Singh, Nijjar's uncle, had little doubt about what Trudeau said in parliament this week and blamed agents of India's foreign intelligence service, the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), for Nijjar's murder.
