The diplomatic tensions between India and Canada have escalated, with Canada removing 41 diplomats and their dependents from India. This move comes after India called for a reduction in the number of Canadian diplomats in the country. The removal of Canadian diplomats dims hopes for a thaw in diplomatic ties between the two nations. While Canada downplays the crisis, it may face adverse impacts, particularly in the education and immigration sectors, as a large number of Indian students may choose other destinations for study and residency.

Indian students from Punjab studying in Canada contribute approximately Rs 68,000 crore ($8 billion) annually to the Canadian economy, according to Sikh Vox. Data from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada reveals that a significant number of Indian students, particularly from Punjab, pursue courses in Canada. The total number of Punjabi students enrolled in Canadian educational institutions is estimated to be around 3.4 lakh.
