Canada Elections 2025: Jagmeet Singh, a leader considered to be pro-Khalistan in the Canadian general election, has suffered a crushing defeat. New Democratic Party (NDP) chief Jagmeet Singh publicly accepted the defeat after losing the election from the British Columbia's Burnbi Central seat and also announced the resignation from the party leadership. He said that as soon as the interim leader is appointed, he will formally withdraw from his post.

Major setback for NDP

This necklace is not only a major setback for NDP, but also indicates the weakening of the Khalistani influence in Canada's politics. Significantly, Jagmeet Singh is the same leader whose policies and pressure affected relations with India by former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. He has often been in controversies over anti -India and pro -Khalistan stance. 

Jagmeet Singh thanked the supporters, party workers

At an event held in Burnbi on Tuesday night, Jagmeet Singh thanked the supporters, party workers and his family and gave a passionate speech. They said, "Tonight is difficult for New Democrats. We fielded good candidates, but the results did not come in our favor. I thank all those who worked hard. Sometimes defeat is also a part of politics, and it hurts." During this time, he became emotional on the stage and was seen wiping tears for a few moments.

Congratulations to Liberal leader Mark Carney

Jagmeet Singh also wished Mark Karney, the leader of the victorious Liberal Party from his seat, for victory. He said, "I respect democracy and congratulate Carney on his victory. We all aim to make a better Canada."

Anti-India agenda affected

According to analysts, this necklace is not only one person, but also a major setback for the anti -India Khalistani lobby active in Canada. Jagmeet Singh is known as pressurizing a generous stance towards Khalistani activities in India and pressurizing the Trudeau government to take an anti -India stance. He was also considered a major factor behind the tussle in India-Canada relations.

Will India-Canada relations improve?

Experts believe that after Jagmeet Singh being defeated and NDP leadership can create a new political direction in Canada, which will create a possibility of improving relations with India. India-Canada relations over Khalistani activities have been tense over the years. Now a change in this scenario is expected.

Jagmeet Singh's defeat big developments in Canada's politics

Jagmeet Singh's defeat is a major developments in Canada's politics. This is not only a personal defeat of the leader of a party, but also a clear indication for the forces that take anti -India stance that their agenda is no longer public support.
