Radio editor Rishi Nagar was attacked in Canada by Khalistani groups for his critical views. CCTV footage reveals the incident

Rishi Nagar, a radio editor at Canada-based FM Calgary, faced an attack from a group of unidentified youths linked to Khalistani factions. The incident occurred last week as Nagar was heading to the Rio Banquet Hall, according to the CCTV footage accessed by CNN-News18.

Nagar, who has been critical of certain actions by Khalistani groups, sustained injuries during the attack. Police responded quickly to the scene and managed to control the situation. However, there has been no confirmation regarding charges against the attackers.

Sources indicate that this incident raises concerns about media freedom and safety in Canada, with reports suggesting an increase in such attacks targeting journalists and minority voices. Sources said that Khalistani groups attacked Nagar โ€œfor not following their line.โ€

Last week, a businessman also received a ransom call related to similar tensions at Dashmesh Gurudwara, underscoring ongoing threats to minorities in the country. Following the incident, Canadian authorities are probing the attack.

Pro-Khalistan activity in Canada has increased in recent months, raising concerns for the Indian government. New Delhi has urged Canada to take action against groups promoting secessionist ideologies, arguing that such activities undermine the rule of law and threaten diplomatic relations. It has asked Ottawa to take decisive measures against these anti-India elements.
