On Tuesday, more than 1,000 Canadian Hindus came together in Brampton to express their worries about the rising violence against Hindus in the country following a Khalistani attack on a Hindu temple.
The demonstration took place outside the Hindu Sabha Mandir, one of Canada’s largest temples, and drew people from all around Ontario for a peaceful rally to demand safety and responsibility.
The Coalition of Hindus of North America (CoHNA) organized the rally, which emphasized Canadian Hindus’ rising sense of insecurity.
CoHNA shared the rally’s details on X (formerly Twitter), encouraging the Hindu diaspora to stand in solidarity and urging Canadian authorities to address the rise in incidents of targeted violence.
The protesters said the solidarity rally is being held to pressure Canadian politicians and law enforcement agencies to refrain from further supporting Khalistanis.
The CoHNA highlighted the multiple attacks on Hindu temples across Canada during the Diwali weekend and called to stop the “Hinduphobia” in the country.
“Over a thousand #CanadianHindus have gathered in Brampton to protest against the increasingly brazen attacks on Hindu Temples,” the post read.
“Yesterday, during the sacred #Diwali weekend, Canadian Hindu temples, coast to coast, came under attack. We ask Canada to stop this #Hinduphobia now!” it added.
