NDP's Jagmeet Singh delivered scathing remarks in the House of Commons after Canadian national security authorities obtained "credible" intelligence suggesting "agents of the government of India" were behind the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a prominent Sikh leader, in B.C. this summer.

Singh, a Sikh man, spoke critically of Modi and his government, demanding a public inquiry "with full rigour" to ensure those responsible are brought to

justice. "Truth cannot be silenced. Justice cannot and will not

be silenced," he said.

He also added in Punjabi: "We all knew as children that the Indian government commits many atrocities. But we never thought we'd have to face this danger after coming here, to Canada."
