Government confirms 41 diplomats have left India as diplomatic tensions remain high

India has notified Canada that it will remove diplomatic immunities for all but 21 Canadian diplomats and dependents in New Delhi, prompting the safe departure of Canadian diplomats and their families.
As a result, Canada will temporarily suspend in-person services at consulates in Bengaluru, Chandigarh, and Mumbai, leaving the High Commission in New Delhi as the only place to receive services. This reduction in diplomatic numbers in India will have an impact on the country as it is Canada's largest source of new migrants.
Despite the escalating tensions, Canada will not be reciprocating India's actions and will continue to respect diplomatic norms.
