The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) is reducing its employees in India from 27 to five due to India's decision to remove immunities for Canadian diplomats. The Consulates General of Canada in Bengaluru, Chandigarh, and Mumbai are also temporarily suspending in-person operations. IRCC’s statement points out that the majority of applications from India are already processed outside the country, with 89% of India’s applications processed through the global network.
