TL;DR 📝

Vanshika Saini, a 21-year-old Indian student and daughter of AAP leader Davinder Saini, was found dead near a beach in Ottawa, Canada, after being missing for several days. She had moved to Canada two and a half years ago for her studies. Her sudden disappearance and death have raised concerns about the safety of Indian students abroad. Investigations are ongoing, and her family suspects foul play.​


🌍 A Promising Journey Cut Short

Vanshika Saini, hailing from Dera Bassi, Punjab, had dreams of building a better future. After completing her Class 12, she moved to Canada to pursue a two-year diploma in health studies. She had recently completed her final exams and started working part-time at a call center in Ottawa. On April 22, she left her residence to view a rental room but never returned. Her phone was switched off, and she missed an important exam, which was uncharacteristic of her. ​

🕵️‍♀️ The Search and Discovery

Concerned friends and family reported her missing, leading to a search operation. Tragically, her body was discovered near a beach in Ottawa. The cause of death remains under investigation, and authorities are awaiting the autopsy report. ​

🗣️ Family's Plea for Justice

Vanshika's father, Davinder Saini, a local AAP leader, is devastated by the loss. He last spoke to his daughter on April 22 and has since been seeking answers. The family suspects foul play and is urging Canadian authorities to conduct a thorough investigation. ​

🇮🇳 Indian Authorities Respond

The Indian High Commission in Canada has expressed deep sorrow over Vanshika's death and is in close contact with her family. They have assured all possible assistance and are coordinating with local authorities to ensure a comprehensive investigation. 

📢 MediaFx's Take

This tragic incident highlights the vulnerabilities faced by international students, especially those from working-class backgrounds. The pursuit of better education and opportunities abroad should not come at the cost of safety and well-being. It's imperative for both Indian and Canadian authorities to ensure the protection of students and address the systemic issues that lead to such tragedies.​
