It’s already known that the situation of certain Indian origin individuals in the United States and Canada has been a major concern in the recent past. But things are starting to change dramatically now and here’s a look into one such story.

The tragic death of an Indian IT professional in Canada has left his family shattered and searching for answers.

Chandan Kumar, who was working in Toronto, was shot dead in a shocking incident that has sent waves of grief through his hometown in India. His parents are struggling to come to terms with the loss and say they had repeatedly urged their son to return home for a while, sensing that he had been under stress.

Sadly, he chose to stay back, unaware of the danger that would soon take his life. According to his family, Chandan had recently been making efforts to bring together members of the Kannada community in Toronto by forming an association.

His parents now fear that this initiative might have led to disagreements or conflicts, which they suspect could be linked to his killing. However, authorities have not yet confirmed any motive, and the investigation is still ongoing.

Friends describe Chandan as a soft spoken and hardworking professional who was passionate about building a sense of community among Indians living abroad. His sudden death has raised concerns about the safety of immigrants and professionals working overseas.

As the family waits for more clarity from investigators, they are left with painful memories and the haunting thought that their request for him to come home might have saved his life.
