The members of Indian-American US Congress have warned that unless India investigates and holds those responsible for plotting an assassination of an American citizen on American soil accountable, it can cause 바카라significant damage바카라 to the 바카라very consequential바카라 India-US bilateral partnership.
All five serving Indian-American members of the US Congress, based on a secret briefing by the US administration, have issued the warning, HT reported.
The report also said that the members have also sought a clear assurance from India that such an incident will never occur again.
In a joint statement, Amy Bera, Pramila Jayapal, Ro Khanna, Raja Krishnamoorthi and Shri Thanedar 바카라 all Democrats who serve in the House of Representatives from diverge geographies and are members of key legislative committees 바카라 said the US administration had provided them a classified briefing on the indictment of Nikhil Gupta in connection with a foiled plot to assassinate Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, an American-Canadian dual citizen who India has designated as a terrorist, in New York City, the report said.
Last month, the US Department of Justice unsealed an indictment that implicated a serving Indian government official for orchestrating the plot and seeking to assassinate Pannun in June this year through Gupta, who, in turn, hired a hitman who turned out to be an undercover agent for US law enforcement.
India responded by acknowledging that it had received inputs from the US and announced the constitution of a high-level investigation committee to examine the issue.
바카라As members of Congress, the safety and well-being of our constituents is our most important priority. The allegations made in the indictment are deeply concerning,바카라 the report quoted the statement of the members.
The five Indian-American leaders said that they believed that the US-India partnership had made a 바카라meaningful impact바카라 on the lives of people of both countries, it said.
바카라But we are concerned that the actions outlined in the indictment could, if not appropriately addressed, cause significant damage to this very consequential partnership,바카라 the statement added.
