Relations between India and Canada are increasingly strained. Following the attack on a Hindu temple in Canada on Sunday, former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Andhra's Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan have expressed strong reactions. The Deputy Chief Minister stated that the attack on a Hindu temple, and Hindus in Canada, strikes deeply at hearts, causing both anguish and concern.

As a global minority, Hindus receive less attention and easily become targets. Every act of hatred and abuse is a blow to those who value humanity and peace.
