In a display of outrage, pro-Khalistan demonstrators desecrated the Indian flag during a protest in Calgary on [date], sparking tensions with the Indo-Canadian community. The incident, organized by the Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) group, involved activists using swords, daggers, and spears to damage the Indian tricolour, according to local reports.
This act of disrespect comes just one week after clashes between SFJ supporters and police in Edmonton. The Calgary protest also reportedly led to the cancellation of a planned meet and greet with Indian High Commissioner Sanjay Kumar Verma, who was targeted by the SFJ for disruption at events across Canada.
Around a dozen Indo-Canadian counter-protesters attempted to disrupt the demonstration, highlighting the ongoing tensions surrounding the Khalistan separatist movement.
