Canadian Minister refuses to comment on Khalistan tag

New Delhi April 18 (IANS) Canadian Defence Minister Harjit Singh Sajjan on Tuesday refused to comment on charges that he was a Khalistan backer and said he was proud to have been born in India.

I have been given many labels through my life Sajjan said when he was asked about allegations that he was a Khalistan supporter.
