Phagwara, Amit Ohri. Due to the unpleasant atmosphere created between Canada and India immediately after the G-20 summit held in India, the market of various types of discussions and rumors is hot across the country. This issue has become a topic of serious discussion in Punjab, as Punjab is the only state in the country with the largest number of young boys and girls going to study and settle in Canada on study visa.
Mini Punjab in Canada

Every year more than two lakh students from the country go to Canada to study. Of these, about 45 percent are Punjabis. There are many provinces in Canada which have become mini Punjab. In such a situation, Punjabis keep a special eye on any event or activity happening in Canada. Now, due to the tense environment in Canada and India, this issue has become a topic of discussion.
