In Canada's British Columbia, a temple was vandalised on Saturday with pro-Khalistan placards stuck to its front gate and back wall. The Lakshmi Narayan Mandir was surrounded by the offensive posters. According to Satish Kumar, the president of the temple, the incident had been reported to the Surrey RCMP station.

According to the CCTV video, temple security cameras caught two people wearing masks. He stated that due to security worries as it gets ready to celebrate Independence Day on August 20, the temple had contacted police even earlier.

The temple board will have an urgent meeting to examine the situation on Sunday.

'WANTED' was written beneath the names and pictures of India's High Commissioner to Ottawa, Consul General to Toronto, and Consul General to Vancouver, according to media sources.

The second poster, which was stuck to the back doors, demanded that Canada look into India's "role" in the June 18 "assassination" of Khalistani leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

On June 18 in Surrey, Nijjar was killed in the parking lot of the Guru Nanak Singh Gurdwara Sahib.
