THE GHOST OF AIR INDIA FLIGHT--182

Sarasij Majumder

 

Back in the early 1980s, Khalistan violence was on the rise with several terrorist outfits such as Babbar Khalsa springing up, and started operations. The leader of Babbar Khalsa was Talwinder Singh Parmar:

Born in Punjab India, he immigrated to Canada in the year 1970 and eventually became a citizen. After becoming the head of Babbar Khalsa in Canada, Parmar organized and claimed the responsibility of several assassinations, murders, and terrorist attacks in India the assassination of two police officers in Gul Khurd and Kott Shameer, Punjab, India. Some of them are listed below:-

  1. The killing of Nirankari religious leader Gurbachan Singh.
  2. The attempted assassination of Niranjan Singh, an Indian civil servant.
  3. The assassination of Lala Jagat Narain, a member of the Punjab Legislative Assembly and former Member of the Parliament of India.
  4. The killing of a village head in Punjab, India.

And some more.

Hence, the Indian government issued an arrest warrant against Parmar, and he was arrested in Germany. After his release a year later, he went back to Canada. But, since he was still a wanted man in India, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi formally requested his extradition from Canada. But, Prime Minister of Canada, Pierre Trudeau, rejected the extradition request, on a funny excuse.

His reason? That India was not sufficiently deferential to the Queen. In other words, since India did not recognize the Queen as the head of the state but only as the head of the Commonwealth, the extradition protocol between Commonwealth countries wouldn’t apply here.

Canadian Journalist and former Senior Correspondent of CBC news Terry Milewski even wrote the following about it:

“Not much came of it. Quite the reverse, in fact. It was Pierre Trudeau’s government which refused the 1982 Indian request to extradite Talwinder Parmar to India for murder, on the quaint grounds that India was insufficiently deferential to the Queen. That is not a joke. Canadian diplomats had to tell their Indian counterparts that the extradition protocols between Commonwealth countries would not apply because India only recognized Her Majesty as Head of the Commonwealth, and not as Head of State. Case closed!”

Turns out, this decision made by Pierre Trudeau would end up becoming one of his biggest mistakes, if not the BIGGEST, costing exactly 329 lives.

That’s because in the year 1985, Talwinder Singh Parmar would go on to mastermind the bombing of the Air India Flight 182, a flight that took off from Montreal and exploded over the Atlantic Ocean near Ireland, killing all 329 people onboard, most of whom were Canadian nationals.

The bomb had been planted on the plane in Montreal itself.

Mind you, the Canadian security agencies as well the police had been alerted by their informers that Talwinder Parmar and his accomplices were involved in acquiring and testing some bombs. Also, the Indian R&AW had also warned the Canadian intelligence agencies that Khalistani terrorists were planning something like that. However, none of it was taken seriously by Pierre Trudeau.

As a result, the worst terrorist attack in Canadian history happened.

Also, as corroborated by a 2010 report by a commission headed by Canadian Supreme Court Justice John C Mayor, the Canadian investigation agencies totally botched the post-tragedy investigation, and a lot of evidence that implicated Parmar was destroyed, thus allowing Parmar to get away with it. However, RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) still establishes Parmar to be the main brain behind this terrorist attack.

The Sucker would meet his justice when he sneaked into India through Pakistan border and was gunned down by Punjab police. But then, the damage was already done. Those people who died in the tragedy weren’t going to return.

If only Pierre Trudeau accepted the extradition request by Indira Gandhi and/or Canadian agencies took the warnings that Khalistani terrorists were planning to plant a bomb on a flight seriously, this tragedy would have been averted.

In 2014, she was awarded the Young Scientists Award by the Indian National Science Academy (INSA) for solving the Zariski Cancellation Problem, posed by Oscar Zariski, one of the most eminent founders of modern algebraic geometry. “One of the best works in algebraic geometry in recent years done anywhere,” was INSA’s remark on Gupta’s solution. In 2021, she was awarded the Ramanujan Prize for young mathematicians for her series of outstanding work in affine algebraic geometry and commutative algebra, particularly for the Zariski Cancellation Problem, that had remained unsolved for 60 years until 2014 when Gupta cracked it.
