The Foiled Plot and its Implications
Last week, federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York announced charges against an Indian national, Nikhil Gupta, for directing a plot to assassinate a US citizen of Indian origin. The plot was linked to another assassination in Canada of a Sikh leader who supported Sikh separatism. These plots have the potential to strain the relationship between India and the West, as they involve attempts to commit assassinations on US soil. The audacity and risks associated with these plots are remarkable, highlighting the need for deterrence and stronger collaborations between countries.
