OTTAWA: A prominent gurdwara in Canada's Vancouver was vandalised with pro-Khalistan graffiti on Saturday.
Khalsa Diwan Society, which runs Ross Street Gurdwara, shared images on its official X handle, showing the word 'Khalistan zindabad' spray-painted in several locations along the wall around the parking lot.
The vandalism came to light on Saturday morning when Surrey hosted what is considered the largest Baisakhi parade in the world.
Vancouver Police department spokesperson Sgt Steve Addison said they were investigating the incident, but have yet to zero on suspects. Khalsa Diwan Society said, "This act is part of an ongoing campaign by extremist forces... to instil fear and division within the Canadian Sikh community."
