The vandalism incident took place on Thursday when a devotee noticed that outer walls of SMVS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir at Newark, California was defaced with anti-India and pro-Khalistani graffiti.
The images shared on social media showed Khalistan terrorist Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale’s name written on the walls of the temple with black ink.
Hateful slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi were also written on the exterior walls of the temple, according to the pictures shared by the Hindu American Foundation.
“The mention of the Khalistan terrorist kingpin #Bhindranwale, who targeted Hindus for murder, is specifically meant to traumatize temple goers and create a fear of violence—meeting the CA definition of a hate crime,” the Hindu American Foundation wrote on ‘X’.
The Indian Consulate office took cognizance of the matter and said that the incident has hurt sentiments of the Indian community.
“We have pressed for quick investigation and prompt action against the vandals by the US authorities in this matter,” the consulate office said in a social media post.
