New Delhi:

Rubbishing a Canadian minister’s claims that Home Minister Amit Shah had ordered the targeting of Khalistani extremists in the country, India has termed them “absurd and baseless” and said a representative of the Canadian High Commission had been summoned on Thursday.

Canada’s Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister David Morrison had told members of the country’s Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security on Tuesday that Mr Shah had ordered a campaign of violence, intimidation and intelligence gathering targeting Khalistani extremists.

Replying to a question on Friday, Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said a representative of the Canadian High Commission on Thursday and a diplomatic note was handed over.
