New Delhi:
In a startling attack, the Canadian High Commission has accused the Border Security Force (BSF) of human right violations.
Canada has apparently denied a visa application by a retired BSF constable Fateh Singh Pander.
The reason given for denying the visa is that the BSF is a violent paramilitary unit that is involved in human rights violations and excessive violence in Kashmir.
The Ministry of External Affairs has said it has taken up the matter with Canadian authorities.
