A recent video circulating online shows a group of Khalistanis marching through the streets of Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. During the march, participants were seen chanting slogans and holding banners that asserted their claim to ownership of Canada and demanded that white people return to Europe and Israel.
The video has sparked outrage and condemnation from various quarters, with many expressing concern over the rise of extremist ideologies and the potential for violence. The incident has also raised questions about the role of social media platforms in amplifying such messages and the need for stricter regulation to prevent the spread of hate speech.
The Khalistan movement, which seeks to establish an independent Sikh state in the Indian state of Punjab, has been active in Canada for several decades. While the movement has largely been peaceful, recent years have seen an increase in extremist activities, including threats and violence against Indian diplomats and Hindu temples.
The latest incident in Surrey highlights the growing challenge posed by extremist groups in Canada and the need for the government to take decisive action to address the issue. This includes strengthening counterterrorism measures, monitoring extremist activities, and promoting social cohesion and tolerance.
