India suspended Visas for Canada because of the Killing of a Sikh Khalistani activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian grounds. There is also a message on the BLS website, the visa service provider, from the India Mission saying the reason for the decision is “operational reasons”.

The relationship between the two countries is not stable, as Canada suggested an investigation for “credible allegations” against India blaming them for the killing of an activist leader as a political execution. As per the BBC reported in reply, India rejected all the accusations by calling them “absurd”.
