Rumors have been spreading alleging that former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stated that the Indian government was responsible for his resignation and labeled India as more dangerous than Russia. However, these claims are completely baseless and lack any credible or verified evidence to substantiate them. Recently, Canada published a report on foreign interference, accusing the Indian government of meddling in its elections. In response, India’s Ministry of External Affairs denied these allegations, countering that it is Canada that has consistently interfered in India’s internal affairs.
