Khalistan supporters threaten Indian embassy in US, video surfaces

Pro-Khalistan protesters in the United States threatened the Indian embassy and Indian Ambassador to the United States Taranjit Singh Sandhu on Saturday. They threatened and announced that the “hypocrisy” would end and that the people at the embassy would have nowhere to go.

The protesters made vague claims that the “Indian government is killing citizens from all communities all over the country.” “This hypocrisy comes to an end now…… There will come a day when the windows of your cars will break and you will have nowhere to run to,” they threatened the Indian embassy with slogans of “Khalistan Zindabad”.

Hundreds of supporters of Khalistan gathered outside the Indian Embassy in the United States. Pro-Khalistan slogans were shouted by turbaned men of all ages among the protesters. They came from various parts of the DC-Maryland-Virginia (DMV) region. The organisers used microphones to deliver anti-India speeches in both English and Punjabi, and they specifically targeted the Punjab Police for alleged human rights violations.

Protests by Khalistan supporters have taken place outside the Indian embassy and the San Francisco Consulate. On March 20, the Indian Consulate in San Francisco was also attacked. Images circulated online show a large mob wielding Khalistan flags mounted on wooden poles and smashing glass doors and windows of the consulate building. They chanted pro-Khalistan slogans as they broke through the city police’s makeshift security barriers and placed two Khalistani flags inside the premises.

The attack on the Indian consulate in San Francisco by a group of separatist Sikhs was strongly condemned by the US, who called it “absolutely unacceptable.”

The US has condemned the attack on the Indian Consulate in San Francisco, as well as any other attack on diplomatic facilities within the US. The United States has pledged to defend the safety and security of these facilities, as well as the diplomats who work there.

“The United States condemns the attack against the Indian Consulate and any attack against diplomatic facilities within the United States. We pledge to defend the safety and security of these facilities as well as the diplomats who work within them,” the US State Department spokesperson told ANI.

The United States, according to US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, condemns the attacks on the Indian Consulate in San Francisco. He also stated that the United States is committed to the safety and security of Indian diplomats. He confirmed that the US State Department is in contact with local law enforcement.
