New Delhi: India has once again come under sharp focus after renewed Khalistani activities in Canada. Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, chief of the banned U.S.-based outfit Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), issued an open challenge to India’s National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval.

In a video message, Pannun dared Doval to come to Canada, the U.S., or any European country, saying, “Try arresting me or seeking extradition. I am waiting.”

The threat came shortly after the release of his close aide, Inderjeet Singh Gosal, on bail. Gosal, known as Pannun’s right-hand man and former personal security officer, walked free from Ontario’s Central East Correctional Centre on Thursday.

Gosal was arrested on September 19 during a traffic check near Highway 407 in Oshawa, Ontario, along with Jagdeep Singh of New York and Arman Singh of Toronto. Canadian police charged them with multiple serious offences related to firearms, including possession of unlicensed pistols, careless use of weapons, and carrying concealed firearms.

After his release, Gosal immediately circulated a video online in which he openly supported Pannun. In the clip, he declared, “India, I am out now. I stand with Gurpatwant Singh Pannun. On November 23, 2025, the Khalistan Referendum will be held, and Delhi will become Khalistan.” He also alleged that Indian agents posed a threat to his life, citing information shared with him by Canadian police.

Gosal is regarded as SFJ’s chief organiser in Canada. Following the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Surrey, British Columbia, in June 2023, he rose to prominence within the Khalistan movement. Many within the separatist circles consider him Nijjar’s possible successor.

The developments highlight how SFJ’s anti-India activities continue to thrive abroad, drawing concern for New Delhi at a time of heightened global scrutiny of Khalistani networks.
