A US federal court has permitted Sikh separatist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun to serve his civil lawsuit against India's National Security Adviser Ajit Doval and former RAW chief Samant Goel through Indian courts by November 30, 2026. The US State Department transmitted the legal documents to the Indian Embassy in Washington via diplomatic channels.
