Indo-Canadian Community organisations have called upon the country’s politicians to stop providing cover to Khalistani separatists using its territory, even as the secessionist group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) attacked Liberal Party MP Chandra Arya for ciriticising vandalisation of a Hindu temple in Edmonton this week.
The latest iteration came a day after the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Edmonton, the capital of Alberta, was desecrated with spraypainted graffiti attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Arya, and using the slur ‘Hindu terrorist.’
The National Alliance for Indo-Canadians or NAIC said, “Canada can’t be a battleground for Khalistani extremism. Threats to fellow Canadians and politicians are not the Canadian values.”
