On 17th October, New Democratic Party (NDP) leader Jagmeet Singh who backs the armed Khalistani terrorists said that if voted to power, his party will rehire over 1000 Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) agents removed by the Conservative government a decade back. The pro-Khalistan leader, who has supported terrorists, said that doing so will curb the influx of illegal guns into Canada. Back in 2012, the Conservative government had removed 1100 CBSA border officers as a part of spending cuts.
Speaking to the media on Thursday, Jagmeet Singh said: “Everyone in our country should feel safe. Sadly, that is not what it feels like right now. We’re seeing a really serious increase in gun violence. Particularly we heard this week really troubling allegations by the RCMP that a foreign government is actually hiring organised criminal gangs to engage in gun violence against our communities. And we know that the majority of guns that are involved in these serious crimes…when they are seized by the police it turns out that 85% of them are smuggled across the border…”
#BREAKING: Jagmeet Singh says the rise in gun violence is because the Conservatives cut 1100 border agents 10 years ago…
And when he's Prime Minister, he'll keep communities safe and stop gun smuggling!
He further claimed that CBSA is overworked but understaffed, as the Conservative government laid off 1100 border officers in a day in 2012.
While Jagmeet Singh took a swipe at the Indian government based on unfounded allegations made by the RCMP and the Trudeau government as he spoke about border security officers and illegal guns, Jagmeet forgot to mention that he himself is a strong supporter of Khalistani terrorists including the slain Hardeep Singh Nijjar. It is ironic that Jagmeet Singh talks about keeping the Canadian people safe from violence but had refused to condemn Air India bomber Talwinder Singh Parmar in 2017 and openly supports the gun-wielding anti-India Khalistani terrorists.
Recently, Jagmeet Singh had reporters laughing at his stupidity as the NDP leader called for sanctions against Indian diplomats to be imposed. “We support today’s decision to expel India’s diplomats and we’re calling on the Government of Canada yet again to put diplomat sanctions against India in place, ban the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh Network (RSS) in Canada, and commit to pursuing the most severe consequences for anyone found to have participated in organised criminal activity on Canadian soil,” Jagmeet Singh said on 15th October.
The Mumbai traffic police received a threat message demanding Rs 5 crore extortion money from Bollywood actor Salman Khan, claiming to resolve his conflict with imprisoned gangster Lawrence Bishnoi.
The person who sent the message claimed to be close to Lawrence Bishnoi gang and claimed to put the actor’s life in danger if not provided with the extortion money.
According to Mumbai police, “A threatening message has been received on the WhatsApp number of Mumbai Traffic Police, demanding Rs 5 crore from actor Salman Khan to end his long-standing rivalry with Lawrence Bishnoi.”
The sender claimed, “Don’t take it lightly, if Salman Khan wants to stay alive and wants to end the enmity with Lawrence Bishnoi, then he will have to pay Rs 5 crore. If the money is not given, Salman Khan’s condition will be worse than Baba Siddique.”
The Mumbai Police has taken the matter very seriously and has started investigating the case.
The incident comes in the backdrop of the recent murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique.
Earlier on Thursday, the Mumbai Police issued a look-out circular (LOC) for Shiv Kumar Gautam and Zeeshan Akhtar who shot at NCP leader Baba Siddique.
The Mumbai Police had initially issued a Look Out Circular against only Shubham Lonkar, and now it has issued it against these two as well, police suspect that they might flee to Nepal.
According to the police, the information about the accused has been given at every border and airport and the search for the accused is ongoing.
Zeeshan Siddique, son of NCP leader Baba Siddique demanded justice for his father and family and appealed for his father’s death not to be politicised or allowed to go in vain.
So far, the Mumbai Crime Branch has arrested four accused, while three remain at large, with police actively searching for them.
Days after Baba Siddique was shot dead in Mumbai, Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde reiterated on Wednesday that those responsible for such crimes would be held accountable and not go unpunished.
“No one will be spared. Strict action will be taken against whoever is found guilty,” the Maharashtra CM said.
The NCP leader and former Maharashtra Minister Siddique was shot outside his office in Nirmal Nagar. He sustained two gunshot wounds to the chest and was taken to Mumbai’s Lilavati Hospital for emergency treatment, where he succumbed to his injuries on October 12.

Actor Tamannaah Bhatia was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate in Guwahati in connection to a money laundering case linked to a mobile app. The probe agency is investigating the case of ‘HPZ Token’ app which is accused of duping large number of investors in Assam on the pretext of mining bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies.
Tamannaah Bhatia allegedly received some funds for making a “celebrity appearance” at event organised by the company behind the app to promote it. However, there is no “incriminating” charges against her, ED officials said.
The Enforcement Directorate said the statement of the 34-year-old actor was recorded under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) at its zonal office in Guwahati. She was summoned earlier, but requested to defer it due to work commitment, and appeared before the agency on Thursday.
The HPZ token cryptocurrency scam involved a fraudulent scheme operated through an app-based token called “HPZ.” It promised users large returns on investments in cryptocurrency mining, particularly for Bitcoin and other digital currencies. Victims were lured into investing with the promise that their money would double through these investments.
However, after initial payouts to investors, the scam operators stopped payments, and the platform became inaccessible. Investigations by the ED and CBI revealed that entities behind the HPZ token, such as Shigoo Technology and Lillion Technocab, were involved in money laundering activities. These entities had ties to Chinese-controlled companies and were also running unregistered gaming apps.
ED’s investigation has revealed the alleged role of 299 accused persons and entities in the scam, including 76 Chinese-controlled entities, 10 of whose directors are of Chinese origin, and two other entities controlled by other foreign nationals.
The ED has seized or frozen large sums of money, amounting to hundreds of crores, from various bank accounts and payment gateways like Razorpay, EaseBuzz, and Paytm, connected to the scam. The authorities continue to investigate this multi-layered fraud under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The probe was started based on an FIR registered by the Cyber Crime Police Station, Kohima, Nagaland, for alleged cheating of gullible investors through the app.
In response to the recent spate of hoax bomb threats targeting various flights, including Indian airlines, Union Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu said that necessary actions were being taken and ruled out any larger conspiracy behind these events.
Ram Mohan Naidu said, “Action is being taken on this. We can’t comment on any kind of a conspiracy but from whatever little bit we know these calls are coming from some minors and pranksters. These are all minor and isolated incidents. There is no kind of conspiracy that we can comment on. From our side, we are going to see what best we can do. We are talking to the airlines, security agencies, within the ministry also. Consultations are going on.”
Stating that such “mischievous and unlawful” actions are a matter of grave concern, the minister strongly condemned “attempts to compromise the safety, security and operational integrity of the aviation section.”
“I am deeply concerned over the recent disruptive acts targeting Indian airlines, affecting domestic and international operations. Such mischievous and unlawful actions are a matter of grave concern, and I strongly condemn any attempts to compromise the safety, security, and operational integrity of our aviation sector,” read a statement on the MoCA website.
Naidu chaired a high-level committee on Monday, stating that he is monitoring the situation regularly, and the law enforcement agencies are pursuing all the cases actively, the Union Minister said in the letter.
“In response, I chaired a high-level committee on October 14, comprising officials from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS), the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), the Ministry of Home Affairs, and the Ministry of Civil Aviation,” the letter said.
In the letter, Naidu also informed that the Mumbai Police has apprehended a minor responsible for issuing bomb threats to three flights, and added that all others responsible for the disruptions will be identified and duly prosecuted.
“I am monitoring the situation regularly, and our law enforcement agencies are pursuing all the cases actively. Mumbai Police has arrested a minor responsible for issuing bomb threats targeting 3 flights. All others responsible for the disruptions will be identified and duly prosecuted,” the Union Minister said.
Meanwhile, the Delhi Police informed that an FIR has been registered under sections 217 and 351(4) of the BNS, as well as section 3(1)(d) of The Suppression of Unlawful Acts Against Safety of Civil Aviation Act, 1982, in connection with the recent hoax bomb threat concerning Akasa Air flight.
A detailed investigation is currently underway.
Additionally, after coordination with the concerned social media platform, all accounts responsible for spreading these false threats have been suspended to prevent further misuse and ensure public safety, the police added.
Earlier, an Akasa Air flight bound for Bengaluru from Delhi received a bomb threat on Wednesday, adding to a series of such threats received by multiple airlines in the past two days.

In a tragic occurrence that has sent shockwaves throughout Uttar Pradesh, 22-year-old Ram Gopal Mishra was brutally murdered by an Islamist mob on October 13th, 2024, in Bahraich. The murder occurred after Mishra replaced an established green flag with a saffron one at Abdul Hamid’s home following a dispute during a religious procession of Durga Visarjan.
Tensions erupted near a mosque as the Durga Visarjan procession passed through the streets of Maharajganj on 13th October. According to the eyewitnesses, the incident occurred as local Muslims launched attacks on Hindus for playing the DJ system during the procession. The Muslims also pelted stones from the Mosque on the procession and injured several Hindus. In the subsequent confusion, the mob destroyed Maa Durga’s murti, further escalating the situation.
The post-mortem report of Ram Gopal Mishra has arrived in which it has been confirmed that the death of the deceased happened due to several gunshot wounds. The report further stated that Mishra had several injuries on his face, neck, and arm areas. The post-mortem report also states that the authorities recovered 7 pellets from the body of Mishra that had 40 entry wounds and 2 exit wounds.
The report mentions 29 entry wounds on the upper part of the chest extending to the neck, 2 entry wounds on the right upper arm, 3 entry wounds on the left upper arm, and a total of 6 entry wounds on the whole face. Apart from these, there were 2 exit wounds in the back of the neck, the report states. All the wounds had blackness around them.
A total of 7 pellets were recovered from the body. The cause of the death has been mentioned as shock and haemorrhage caused by gunshots.
The report from 14th October also reveals that Mishra had injuries on 8 spots in his body including his feet.
The postmortem examination was done by three doctors on 14 October afternoon, and it was video recorded. X-ray of the body was also done before the examination.
In the midst of this, the Chief Medical Officer of Bahraich, Sanjay Kumar stated that there were around 25-30 pellet injuries on the body of Mishra. “There are some injury marks on his left eye and on the toes. Some parts of the nails of both his feet are also missing,” he confirmed.
Earlier, there were reports that Mishra was tortured before his death, and his toenails were pulled out. However, the police had denied the claims. “There are social media posts that indicate that the body of the deceased was given electric shocks, was attacked with a sword, and that his toenails were desecrated. These posts are not true. The post-mortem report says that the death happened due to gunshots. No other reason for death has been mentioned in the reports,” the police had said.
Also, today, SP Bahraich Vrinda Shukla stated that the death of the deceased had happened solely due to gunshots and any other injuries that were being claimed on social media were not mentioned in the post-mortem report.

"…जब पुलिस टीम हत्या के हथियार की बरामदगी के लिए नानपारा क्षेत्र में गई थी, तो मोहम्मद सरफराज उर्फ रिंकू और मोहम्मद तालिब उर्फ सबलू ने हत्या के हथियार को लोड करके रखा था,… pic.twitter.com/didbMP9t4I
Earlier, a report by Jagran stated that Ram Gopal Mishra’s dead body was riddled with injury marks and that his fingernails were ripped off. He was shot after suffering horrific torment and agony from several blows and bullet pellets that tore apart his body from the chest to the neck, as per the report. Ram Gopal’s distraught mother also observed that her son’s toenails had been torn off when she saw his battered body.
Also, siblings of Mishra, Harimilan and Preeti had confirmed that their brother was brutally murdered by the Islamists. Harimilan said that Muslims murdered his brother by dragging him into their house. He also said that the police remained mute spectators while all this happened. Meanwhile, Preeti, sister of Ram Gopal Mishra said, “They killed my brother like an animal. They sliced his throat and removed his toenails. His entire body had been wounded by gunfire, and his stomach had many knife cuts. They shot him fifteen times.”
Ram Gopal was married only two months before the Muslim radicals killed him on 13th October during a visarjan procession of the Goddess Durga idol in the Bahraich district of Uttar Pradesh. Abdul Hamid, his two sons Sarfaraz and Faheem, and Sahir Khan, along with others including Talib have been named as accused in the case. Police on Thursday, 17th October shot two accused Sarfaraz and Talib as they attacked the police and attempted to flee to Nepal. The two have been shot in their legs and are undergoing treatment.
Two key accused in the murder of Ram Gopal Mishra, Sarfaraz and Talib, were shot in an encounter by UP police. They had attacked the police and were attempting to flee to Nepal.
The Muslim mob on Sunday, 13th October started pelting stones from Abdul Hamid’s residence after which the people in the procession also retaliated. Meanwhile, Ram Gopal allegedly went to the roof of that house, took down two green flags, and tied a wire to hoist the saffron flag. He was dragged inside the house by the perpetrators who then murdered him.
The cops present at the location meanwhile acted like mute spectators and lathi-charged the devotees, according to the eyewitnesses. They seemed helpless in front of the Muslim rioters. The people participating in the procession reached Ram Gopal quite late because of the stone-throwing and firing. He was already dead by then. The altercation was reportedly started by Muslim youths who were standing on the street under the pretext of gulaal (colored powder used in Hindu rituals and festivals including Holi). The police’s inaction emboldened the Muslim side who resorted to stone pelting.
Abdul Hamid who is the mastermind behind the attack has a son who resides in Nepal. He goes to a madrasa close to Fultekra in the Banke area where anti-India and anti-Hindu activities take place. Two of the accused persons have been nabbed by the police. Efforts are being taken to nab the other accused. Probe underway.
Sarwar Chishti, a member of the Anjuman Committee of the Ajmer dargah, notorious for his incendiary statements, has said justified the horrific murder of Hindu youth Ram Gopal Mishra in Uttar Pradesh’s Bahraich by Islamists for removing a green flag by climbing the roof of a house and replacing it with a saffron one. He said that if Muslims are abused, then flowers will not be showered but violence will take place the way it happened in Bahraich.
As per a Bhaskar report, Chishti said: “The flag of a particular religion is being hoisted after climbing the house and taking down the green flag. Then flowers will not shower, whatever happened was bound to happen.”
Instead of condemning the brutal murder of Ram Gopal Mishra by Muslim youths, Sarwar Chishti said, “Now this has become an everyday affair. Our religious scholars are insulted. No one has been caught to date. We take out processions, we do not abuse anyone. We take out processions peacefully, all this is happening from only one side.”
He also claimed that jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi kills prominent Muslims like Baba Siddique and Sikhs like Siddhu Moosewala and questioned how it could happen without the government’s involvement.
Notably, this is not the first time that Sarwar Chishti has made such inflammatory remarks. Last month, a video featuring Chishti went viral wherein was seen inciting Muslims to hit the streets and create chaos under the pretext of opposing the Waqf Amendment Bill of 2024.
“It’s a matter of shame that our dignity is at risk. Our houses are being bulldozed, mobs lynching us and mosques, dargahs and mazars are being demolished,” he was heard saying.
Chishti lamented, “The Waqf Amendment Bill 2024 has been brought in by the government. We are asking Muslims to scan the QR Code and ensure the rejection of the bill. As of 10th September, only 40 lakh Muslims have scanned the QR code. Why are you sleeping, Miyan? You will have to hit the roads soon. You have already been late in retaliation by unnecessarily tolerating injustice. A person who tolerates injustice is worse than a cruel person. You are living in a democratic country at least use those rights. Why are you not doing it? I have said this before and want to say it again from my heart – Please acknowledge someone as your leader. I see Asaduddin Owaisi bravely raise his voice over issues (concerning Muslims).”
As reported earlier, On 6th July 2022, Sarwar Chishti provoked Muslims to act against those who make alleged blasphemous remarks against Prophet Muhammad. “The situation in the country right now, is such that people are committing blasphemy. They are doing mischief in the glory of the Prophet, in the glory of the Khwaja. We will not tolerate this at all. We will launch such a massive agitation that the whole Hindustan will shake,” he had threatened.
A few days later, an audio clip went viral on social media wherein the radical Islamic preacher was heard calling for an economic boycott of the Hindu community.
The Trudeau government is at the receiving end of backlash and plenty of embarrassment after it launched a fresh attack on the Indian government and diplomats accusing them of involvement in criminal activities against Khalistani terrorists in Canada without a shred of evidence.
While the diplomatic tensions between India and Canada have heightened since PM Trudeau first accused the Indian government of involvement in Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar’s killing, the Trudeau government has desperately been trying to convince its public that India is bad. Trudeau government has been implying that Indian media and social media handles ‘interfering’, ‘manipulating’ information in the context of Trudeau’s initial statement regarding India’s imaginary role in Nijjar’s murder.
On the 12th of September this year, the Canadian government’s Foreign Interference Commission released a report prepared as part of the Global Affairs Department’s Rapid Response Mechanism. This report titled Potential Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference following PM Statement on Killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar alleged that there is pro-Modi section of Indian media, which amplified ‘propaganda’ and spread ‘disinformation’ regarding the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. In June 2023, and the later statement issued by PM Trudeau in September last year accused Indian government of involvement in Nijjar’s murder.
The Canadian government labelled several Indian media outlets and social media influencers as ‘Godi Media’ alleging that they targeted PM Trudeau, Canadian High Commissioner in India, and the Canadian Sikh community. These baseless assertions made in the report itself expose the sheer bias of the Canadian government. Indian social media users criticising the Trudeau government and Canadian diplomats over the baseless allegations against India and PM Modi does not amount to disinformation. Indian influencers, particularly the ones listed in the RRM report indeed ‘targeted’ Hardeep Singh Nijjar’s ‘political beliefs’ since his beliefs directly challenged the territorial integrity of India.
One of the ‘key findings’ of the report was that influencers/commentators employed by ‘Modi-aligned’ media outlets accused Justin Trudeau of being an “enabler of terrorism”, “falling into the laps of Khalistani extremists,” or “treacherous against Bharat (India).” The only question that arises here is where is the lie? Has Canada not become a safe haven for Khalistani terrorists, are Khalistani terrorists not using Canadian soil to peddle their separatist agenda, conduct farcical referendums, deface Hindu temples, carry out frequent protests disparaging India, Hindus, the Indian Prime Minister and diplomats? When the Trudeau government is giving a free pass to Khalistani terrorists to carry out anti-India and anti-Hindu activities in Canada, what will Indians call him, “annihilator of Khalistanis”?
The report further lamented that the Indian media outlets enjoy “fourteen times” the following than major Canadian outlets including CTV and CBC News. Apparently, RRM Canada suggested that since Indian media has a wider reach online than Canadian media, the global audiences were exposed to “Modi-aligned” narratives. This is such a juvenile argument, since the Canadian people, except the Khalistanis, have consistently been criticising the Trudeau government for making outrageous allegations against the Indian government but not providing a single piece of evidence. In fact, Canadians were joined by Indians in mocking Trudeau over him asking Indian authorities to provide them with ‘evidence’ of their supposed involvement in Nijjar’s assassination.
Listing down the so-called ‘Modi-aligned’ narratives observed by the Canadian authorities, the report said that threats and accusations were levelled against Canadian diplomats in India. Moreover, another ‘narrative’ [read fact] that the report mentions is that Canada safeguards terrorists and extremist forces.
“Several Modi-aligned influencers claimed Canada has historically sheltered terrorist elements of the Khalistan movement. In one high-engagement post (29.5K engagements, 419K user views), frequent Times Now and CNN-Newsl8 commentator Anand Ranganthan claims former PM Pierre Trudeau allowed the 1985 Air India bombing suspected to “walk free,” and that “the apple never falls far from the tree,” suggesting PM Justin Trudeau has familial reasons for safeguarding Khalistan supporters,” the report stated.
The Foreign Interference Commission report, however, did not provide any counter to the ‘narrative’ it deemed misleading or ‘Modi-aligned’. From Khalistan terrorists like Hardeep Singh Nijjar, whose Canadian citizenship remains questionable to this day, to Islamic terrorist Ahmed Ressam to Nazi war criminals, Canada has been a safe haven for all of them. In fact, Mikhailo Chomiak, the grandfather of the current Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland himself was a Nazi collaborator.
Some of the ‘narratives’ RRM Canada noted in its data sample
Furthermore, the report also attempted to negate Nijjar’s role as a Khalistani terrorist saying that the Indian media reports and social media posts aimed to ‘discredit’ Nijjar’s role as a ‘community leader’ in Surrey. Notably, OpIndia has reported earlier, how Nijjar not only ran a terror camp in Canada and was in contact with Khalistani terrorists but also visited Pakistan. Over the years, the Canadian government protected a designated terrorist, and the Canadian PM destroyed ties with India for him just to win political support from the Khalistanis, but Indian media and influencers talking about it amounts to ‘manipulation’ and ‘disinformation’.
The report also pointed out that several social media handles and Indian journalists including News18’s Amish Devgan shared a picture of Trudeau with regime change specialist George Soros to imply that somehow the Canadian PM has ties with Soros. While there may or may not be a direct link between Trudeau and Soros, the latter’s hatred for Prime Minister Modi and the BJP government is widely known. Such speculative social media posts do not amount to disinformation even if they may have rattled PM Trudeau.
In addition to several other points, the report listed several Indian journalists, social media handles of Indian news outlets including ANI, Zee News etc, and their reach as well as some posts critical of PM Trudeau in the context of his statement regarding Nijjar’s killing and the anti-India rant.
Notably, this report was published only weeks before Justin Trudeau launched his fresh attack against Indian diplomats and the Modi government, accusing them of being ‘persons of interest’ and being involved in criminal activities against Canadian citizens [read Khalistanis]. India rejected the allegations and called them “preposterous imputations” and part of the Trudeau government’s political agenda.
India recalled its High Commissioner to Canada following which the Trudeau government asked 6 Indian diplomats to leave the country. In a reciprocal move, New Delhi expelled 6 Canadian Canadian diplomats, asking them to leave the country before 20th October.
In an accidental moment of truth, Trudeau recently admitted that they had no evidence before accusing the Indian government of involvement in the killing of Khalistani extremist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. In an interview, Trudeau said that they had no proof to pinpoint the killing of Nijjar to India when they had first accused New Delhi of orchestrating the assassination on Canadian soil.
“They(India) asked us to share the evidence and at that point, it was weak intelligence and not hard evidence,” said Trudeau, confirming that allegations of Indian involvement in Nijjar’s killing were not backed with proof.
While the Canadian government and its dubious reports suggest that the Trudeau government does not pander to Khalistani elements, designated Khalistani terrorist and SFJ chief Gurpatwant Singh Pannun admitted to being in contact with Justin Trudeau’s office for the last three years and having shared information with them.
The desperation to deflect the attention of the Canadian people from allegations of Chinese interference in the last two federal elections in Canada as well as to appease the Khalistani votebank, particularly since Trudeau has grown highly unpopular among the public for a plethora of reasons, has reduced PM Trudeau and his government into clowns making a mockery of themselves at a global level.
While RRM Canada has been worrying about Canadians coming across the so-called “Modi-aligned narratives” from Indian sources like Canada safeguarding extremists and terrorists, Hardeep Nijjar being an unsavoury individual and a member of Khalistan Tiger Force and Babbar Khalsa, Pakistan funding Khalistanis in Canada among others, most of these have been proven to be true. So, is the Trudeau government afraid that the Canadian people will learn the truth?
When the Trudeau government calls a Khalistani terrorist like Nijjar, who fraudulently stayed in Canada, and indulged in anti-India activities a “community leader”, strains bilateral ties with India over baseless claims to consolidate anti-India votebank only to admit it eventually that there was no evidence against India, the Canadian government is left with no option but to blame Indian media, Indian social media users for not falling for the theatrics of PM Trudeau.

I along with Zee and other partners created Emergency, and now with the release delay, everyone is bearing a huge loss. Delay release is a loss for all. I think the Censor Board should take the responsibility to release this film at the earliest,” she said.

‘Emergency’ has been embroiled in controversies for some time now including facing backlash several Sikh groups.
