> Sikh conflict you may be referring to are events from 1984 IIRC.
The 70s and 80s were the most intense, but it's far from isolated to just that period. There was a major row with Canada just last year because, according to Canada, the Indian government has been killing Sikh separatists in Canada.[1] Since there is no historical adversity between Canada and India, Canada has nothing to gain by seeking conflict and generally doesn't seek conflicts, I am inclined to believe the Canadian claims.
