A Sikh was murdered in Canada. Turns out that he was unwelcomed in India because he said the Sikh should have their own state. India doesn’t like people encouraging revolution in their country and send some folks to stop him. He’s killed and Canada has the receipts to show it was a state sponsored killing and Modi’s government is directly responsible. India tried to say “nah, not us” and the US showed Canada their receipts that confirm India murdered the guy. Now India is mad that they got caught and trying to make Canada look like the bad guy.
A second Sikh guy in Winnipeg was killed a few days ago, and he was on an Indian national police wanted list. This also raised suspicions among more conspiratorial internet people. However, this guy seems to have been involved in gangs and crime so there are others who may have wanted him dead, and there had been no suggestion of intelligence linking this one to the Indian government.
Indian govt assassinated or was involved in the assassination of a Sikh guy living in Canada. Canadian govt tried to reach out to Indian govt privately to get to the bottom of it, but Indian govt was having none of it. So Canadian govt went public with the revelation, causing Indian govt to throw a massive tantrum.
It’s not exactly undeniable proof. It’s “based on intelligence sources”, not revealing how the intelligence was obtained, for obvious reasons. That said, it’s probably true, because of the Modi government’s response.
Can someone give me the TLDR : What’s the whole situation about? I haven’t really been following in detail… who what why, etc

Thank you! that is very clear.

Canada accused the Indian government of killing a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil presumably because of Sikh activist/separatist views.
Accused, with undeniable proof. Well, what should be undeniable anyway, they seem to be pretty sure they can deny it.
