Devotees Attacked at Canada Hindu Temple

Devotees were attacked at a Hindu temple in Canada’s Brampton by a group of people allegedly Khalistani extremists on Sunday.

In the videos which are doing rounds on social media, a group of men holding Khalistani flags can be seen thrashing people with sticks outside the Hindu Sabha Mandir.

Canada PM Justin Trudeau condemned “acts of violence” at the Hindu Sabha Mandir in Brampton and said it is unacceptable.

Canadian Member of Parliament Chandra Arya condemned the violence and said that a “red line has been crossed” by Khalistani extremists, highlighting the rise of brazen violent extremism in Canada.

Arya shared a video of the attack on X and wrote, “A red line has been crossed by Canadian Khalistani extremists today. The attack by Khalistanis on the Hindu-Canadian devotees inside the premises of the Hindu Sabha temple in Brampton shows how deep and brazen has Khalistani violent extremism has become in Canada.”

He added, “I begin to feel that there is a small grain of truth in the reports that in addition to Canadian political apparatus, Khalistanis have effectively infiltrated into our law enforcement agencies.”

The Canadian Member of Parliament further expressed concerns that Khalistani extremists are taking advantage of Canada’s freedom of expression laws, and are receiving a “free pass.”

“No wonder that under the ‘freedom of expression’ Khalistani extremists are getting a free pass in Canada. As I have been saying for long, Hindu-Canadians, for the security and safety of our community, need to step up and assert their rights and hold politicians accountable,” Arya wrote.
