INDIA-CANADA DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS 
India – Canada Diplomatic relations have become sour due to many technical reasons. In the past Canada was known as an educational hub for the students to easily get Permanent Residency (P.R) and then Citizenship. Due to technical reasons the Indian Government at present has put a blanket ban on Visa to India to the Canadian Citizens who were to apply for the first time, as most of the Indians have taken Citizenship of various countries and for them it can be difficult in coming days to get Visa to travel to India from Canada. Similarly, Indian students can also face hardships in the coming days with refusals in a large number to tourists to go to Canada.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has played a dynamic role in getting the Women Reservation Bill passed and the success of G20 Summit.
