Canada announcement, 'special investigation' traveling to India!
There has been tension in the relations between india and canada since last year. During this time, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau made many allegations against India. To which India also gave a sharp response. At the same time, now canada has made a new announcement. Anita Anand, Transport minister of the Canadian government, issued a statement on monday (November 18). In the statement, she said that her ministry would increase security measures for people travelling to India. She has talked about taking 'extreme caution' in the investigation of people travelling to India.
'Additional security investigation measures' temporarily implemented in Canada.
She said that Transport canada has temporarily implemented additional security investigation measures for passengers coming to India. While these new security-related rules of the Canadian government are in force, passengers may face some delays in screening. Another government official has informed CBC news that these measures in canada are being taken by the Canadian air Transport Security Authority (CATSA). This is the agency responsible for screening passengers and their luggage before entering the restricted areas of airports in Canada.
What will be included in the screening measures?
The screening done by CATSA also includes checking hands if there is suspicion on a person or if there is a need to trace him, sending carry-on bags through X-ray machines and physical examination (frisking) of passengers. It is worth noting that the statement issued by the Transport minister of canada has no connection with any incident. He has not even revealed any concrete reason behind this. Therefore, it is natural to raise the question that what is the intention behind this step of Canada.
