It is noteworthy that on November 3, pro-Khalistan protesters attacked people in the Hindu Sabha temple located in Brampton city of Greater Toronto area of ​​Ontario. Pro-Khalistan protesters had disrupted the program organized by the temple authorities and the Indian Consulate.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had condemned the attack by sharing a post on Twitter. The Indian High Commission also condemned the violent disruption by “anti-India” elements outside a consular camp in Canada. Chandra Arya, MP from Ontario's Nepean region, also posted on Twitter, saying, “Some leaders are deliberately avoiding mentioning and blaming Khalistanis for this attack. They are blaming other elements. In reality, Hindu-Canadians and Sikh-Canadians are on one side and Khalistani are on the other.”
