In a passionate appeal, Swami Chidanand Saraswati, President of Parmarth Niketan Ashram, called on Indians living abroad to maintain their connection to their homeland, following an attack on a Hindu temple in Canada. The assault, carried out by individuals carrying pro-Khalistani flags, has been attributed to a 'polluted mindset' by Saraswati.
The violence took place at the Hindu Sabha Mandir located on Gore Road in Brampton, Canada. Saraswati linked such incidents to a flawed mentality, stating, "If the mindset is getting polluted, the individual launches attack - be it terror, financial, or ideological." He highlighted the Indian Prime Minister's slogan, 'One Earth, One Family, One Future,' as a testament to unity amidst negativity.
India's government has strongly condemned the attack at the Hindu Sabha Temple, emphasizing the need for safety of Indian nationals in Canada. Canadian political figures, including opposition leader Pierre Poilievre and MP Chandra Arya, have denounced the violence, calling for action against the rising extremism.
