The growing dispute between Canada and India is continuously deepening. The controversy that started after the murder of Khalistani Hardeep Singh Nijjar is going from bad to worse. Amid the controversy, India has asked six Canadian diplomats to leave the country. Along with this, Indian High Commissioner Sanjay Verma present in Canada and other diplomats have been called back. This tension is going to have an impact on Indians living in Canada, especially students.
Let us tell you that a large number of people from the Indian community live in Canada. The largest number of these are Indian students, who go to Canada to study every year. Presently, it is also being discussed that the way the dispute is deepening between India and Canada, will it affect the students living there also. Let us know about this…
Canada is dependent on India in the field of education. The reason for this is that India plays a big role among international students studying in Canada. Of the more than 800,000 international students in 2022, more than 40 percent were from India. According to the IRCC report, a record 226,450 Indian students went to study in Canada in 2022, which increased to 2.78 lakh students in 2023. These Indian students are making a big contribution to the economy and culture of Canada.
Know how it is affecting
Now due to the ongoing tension between Canada and India, the talks have been stopped and it will affect Canada more than India. Indian students, along with other international students, help bridge the work force gap in the Canadian economy. Especially in low paying jobs. It contributes to the economic growth and development of the country. However, now the tension in the relations between India and Canada is continuously increasing, due to this there may be a decline in the applications filed by Indian students. A major decline in trade relations due to the decline in Indian immigrants could prove disastrous for Canada.
