Khalistani Protestors Heckle Indian Ambassador to US in New York Gurdwara

New York: A group of Khalistani protesters heckled the Indian Ambassador to the US, Taranjit Singh Sandhu, at a New York gurdwara on Sunday.

This incident occurred during Sandhu’s visit to Hicksville Gurdwara in Long Island on the occasion of Gurpurab. The protesters surrounded him and started shouting slogans accusing him of plotting the assassination of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar and also conspiring to get another terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun murdered.

A video of the exchange between Mr Sandhu and the Khalistani protesters is viral on social media.

“Khalistanies tried to heckle Indian Ambassador @SandhuTaranjitS with baseless Questions for his role in the failed plot to assassinate Gurpatwant, (SFJ) and Khalistan Referendum campaign,” BJP’s national spokesperson RP Singh wrote in a video post on X.
