Given October was the month they had to speed up, it seems they actually did and it was rightly March focused. Hopefully if they continue like this, they might be able to get done with the backlog in the next 2-3 months.

Applying for TRV the second time seems like a waste of time and money. Is anyone planning to visit India anytime soon or has been there recently? I need to know if there are any seperate travel restrictions for people with PR status while coming back to Canada.

Lol, i went above and beyond the documents they requested in the document checklist and submitted as many documents as possible under the assumption it would strengthen my case, i wonder if was counterproductive and has resulted in them taking a lot longer to double check and process things

This is very furstrating!!! Was seriously expecting for it to open sometime this month. VACs of other countries in India started to open from July 2020 and just Canada is still keeping its VACs closed. Does not make any sense what's so ever!
Yup I thought they would open it too. So disappointing and frustrating.
