Protest outside Brampton Hindu temple targets alleged Indian state interference
A Hindu temple in south Brampton was the latest site of protest over the treatment of Sikhs in India and abroad.
On Chinguacousy Road near Queen Street West, dozens of protesters gathered under a sea of yellow flags emblazoned with “Khalistan” — the name given to the desired state, one separate from India, pushed for by Sikhs globally.
Across the street, worshippers peered out from the Triveni Mandir as others came and went for prayers, the protestors amplified shouts muffled by music playing over temple loudspeakers.
