DGR @ Canada desk
Khalistan movement is not about making a separate country out of India, they also understand that this is impossible, Their main agenda is to ignite the fight and use it to get refugee/ asylum status in Canada.
This is going on since decades but has increased tremendously in the recent years.
Everyone wants to get PR, but as CRS points are out of reach, these people have started exploring asylum route.
When they attacked the temple, they were hoping that this will cause reaction back home in India, God FORBID,, if some incident happens in India against the sikh community, their immigration lawyers will use that to get their asylum approved.
They have used Farmers Protest to get asylum. Many students whose PGWP are expiring, they are showing up in Khalistani protest, get their pictures clicked and use them in courts to say that their life would be in danger if they are deported.
Moreover, the federal government is duty bound by international law to provide trial to anyone who claimed asylum, but Canada doesn't have fast track courts, and application is generally taking 5-7 years, this means they can still stay in Canada till their case is decided.
This hatred they show against Hindus is due to greed of staying in Canada and exploit the loop holes of Canadian laws.
