Toronto, April 29 -- Pro-Khalistani leader Jagmeet Singh, leader of Canada's New Democratic Party (NDP), was defeated in the just-concluded Canadian federal elections and has resigned.
The elections saw Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberal Party emerging victorious.
Jagmeet Singh was defeated from the Burnaby Central seat in British Columbia, and his party could get only seven seats in the 343-member new parliament, thus losing its national political party status.
The NDP could get only two percent of the votes.
The New Democratic Party had 24 seats in the previous parliament.
After the results, Jagmeet Singh said, "I am disappointed that we could not win more seats, but I am not disappointed in our movement. I am hopeful for our party."...
