Canadian police officers were also involved in the attack outside the Hindu Sabha temple.
A police officer who participated in the protest by Khalistani supporters outside the Hindu Sabha temple in Brampton, Canada, has been suspended. According to CBS News, a person named Harinder Sohi is an officer with the Peel Regional Police Team.
He was seen waving the Khalistan flag in front of the temple on Sunday (November 3). Peel police media officer Richard Chin said police found footage related to the violence outside the temple, which went viral on social media. In this one, we see police officers participating in the demonstration. The matter is under investigation.
So far, a case has been registered against 3 people for the attack on Indian consular officials outside the Hindu temple. Peel police said that apart from the violence outside the temple, there were also instances of protests in other places around the temple.

Jaishankar said: “Canada has made a habit of making allegations without evidence. Police chief Nishan Duraiappa said he had already received information about the attack. Everyone has the right to protest and express their point of view, but no violence or crime of any kind will be accepted during this time. Those who were involved in this violence will be arrested and punished.
On the other hand, Foreign Minister S Jaishankar said the case of temple attack in Canada is worrying. Speaking to the media, Jaishankar, who was touring Australia, said Prime Minister Modi had also expressed his concerns over the matter. Spying on Indian diplomats will not be accepted in Canada either. He has made a habit of making allegations without any proof.
The police also beat the worshipers. Indeed, on November 3, people who had gone to the Hindu Sabha temple in Brampton were attacked by Khalistan supporters. The attackers had Khalistan flags in their hands. They attacked the people present in the temple with sticks. After this, the police who arrived there also beat up the devotees.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi strongly condemned this attack on a Hindu temple in Canada. He said we expect the Canadian government to act. Such incidents cannot weaken us. At the same time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also called on the Canadian government to protect places of worship.
Earlier, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had said that the violence at the Hindu Sabha temple in Brampton cannot be accepted. Every Canadian has the right to practice their religion freely and safely.
The video of the Hindu temple attack was shared by many Canadian MPs on their X handles.
There have already been attacks on Hindu temples in Canada. The high commission had set up a consular camp outside the Hindu Sabha temple in the city of Brampton in Canada. This camp was established to meet the needs of Indian citizens. Life certificates were issued for this purpose. According to reports, the Khalistanis, who were protesting after 40 years of anti-Sikh riots of 1984, arrived there and attacked the people.
The Indian community has been concerned for some time about attacks on temples and members of the Hindu community in Canada. In recent years, Hindu temples have been vandalized in the Greater Toronto Area, British Columbia and elsewhere in Canada.
India Allegation – Prime Minister Trudeau is pursuing anti-India policies to get votes. Relations between India and Canada have been in decline for more than a year. It began after the murder of pro-Khalistani leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June 2020. In September last year, Prime Minister Trudeau claimed in Parliament that the Indian agency was involved in Nijjar’s murder.
After that, Trudeau accused Indian diplomats of being involved in the Nijjar massacre on October 13. After this, India recalled six of its diplomats, including Sanjay Verma.
India says the Canadian government’s allegations are baseless. Canada has not shared any evidence with the Indian government. They make assertions without facts. The Trudeau government is deliberately trying to defame India to gain political mileage.
India’s foreign ministry said in a press conference last month that Prime Minister Trudeau’s enmity towards India was long-standing. His cabinet includes people openly associated with extremist organizations.
