Gurpatwant Singh Pannun is a key organiser of non-binding referendums calling for a separate Sikh state that has been held in countries with large Indian diasporas.
India said it is examining inputs on security matters from the US amid reports that the US foiled an attempt to kill Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun on American soil.
The Ministry of External Affairs said that India takes such inputs seriously and they are being examined by relevant departments.
"India takes such inputs seriously since it impinges on our own national security interests as well. Issues in the context of US inputs are already being examined by relevant departments," foreign ministry spokesman Aridam Bagchi said after the British daily Financial Times said that the US had foiled an attempt to assassinate Pannun.
