New Delhi: A gurdwara was barbaric in Vancouver, Canada Khalistan graffiti, Khalsa Diwan Society Informed, because it blamed the incident on the “small group of Sikh separatists”. It said that slogans like “Khalistan Zindabad” were raised to the walls of Ross Street Gurdwara.
Images of barbarity, which quickly went viral on social media, showed the phrase “Khalistan Zindabad”, which was spray-painted several times on the wall around the parking lot of the gurudwara. Additional graffiti included slogans of Khalistan directed on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the threat of death.
Vancouver Police Department spokesman Steve Edison said that the officials were examining the frescoes with the word ‘Murdabad’ spray-painted on the gurdwara on Saturday.
“On Saturday, April 19, 2025, we were surprised to see an act of barbarism in our beloved Ross Street Gurdwara. A small group of Sikh separatists, advocating Khalistan, changed our holy walls with divisive slogans such as ‘Khalistan. Zindabad’.
“The Act is part of a campaign run by extremist forces that want to establish fear and division within the Canadian Sikh community,” he said.
The organization further called upon Canadian people to “stand together in front of this extremism”.
“We all asks people of Canadian, Sikhs, and goodwill to stand together in front of this extremism. We should condemn these acts and confirm our shared commitment for the values of peace, unity and respect. This attack is a very attack on all of us that makes Canada strong.
The nation has seen an increase in barbarity, especially on religious structures including Hindu temples.
Earlier this year, the miscreants vandalized the Sri Krishna Brandvan Temple in the Greater Toronto region.
Last year, PM Modi condemned the attack on a Hindu temple in Brampton, calling it “deliberately”. “I strongly condemn the attack on a Hindu temple in Canada. Equally frightening is a cowardly attempt to intimidate our diplomats. Such works of violence will never weaken India’s resolve. We hope that Canadian government will ensure justice and maintain law rule.”
