Union Minister Hardeep Puri on Monday (June 23, 2025) called for closing down funding channels to terrorists and separatists and doubling efforts to unitedly combat the global menace as he paid tributes to the victims of the Air India Flight 182 Kanishka bombing on its 40th anniversary.

The Montreal-London-New Delhi Air India ‘Kanishka’ Flight 182 exploded 45 minutes before it was supposed to land at the U.K.’s Heathrow Airport on June 23, 1985, killing all 329 people on board, most of them Canadians of Indian descent.
