| Allegi • India visit 'very productive' despite controversy, says SajjanThe BBC's Ravinder Singh Robin in Amritsar, Punjab: It was a trip meant to strengthen bilateral ties, but with Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh refusing to meet him, Mr Sajjan's visit hit a sour note. Mr Singh insisted that he had "concrete information" that Mr Sajjan was "a Khalistani sympathiser, just as his father Kundan Sajjan, a board member of the World Sikh Organization", but failed to provide any proof. It's a charge Mr Sajjan - and the Canadian embassy in India - has denied. Mr Singh's political rivals have accused him of playing petty politics and humiliating the Sikh diaspora by not meeting Mr Sajjan. The chief minister's refusal to meet the Canadian minister has baffled many. Mr Singh had resigned from the Congress party in protest in after the Indian security forces entered the Golden Temple at Amritsar, leading to some suggestion that he, too, had some sympathy with the separatists. Also, a couple of years ago, he was photographed sharing a stage with senior Khalistani separatist leaders during a visit to Canada. And that's why there has been some suggestion that his current stand is motivated more by personal reasons - l | |
