Khalistan Attack: Indian-Americans gather outside consulate in San Francisco to show solidarity with India

| @indiablooms | Jul 16, 2023, at 09:59 pm

A large number of Indians recently assembled outside the  Indian consulate in San Francisco and showed solidarity with the country and its diplomats following attempted arson at the diplomatic facility by pro-Khalistan supporters.

They were carrying banners carrying messages like “We stand with our diplomats” and “Khalistani Attack on the Consulate is an act of terrorism”, reports ANI.

A group of pro-Khalistan supporters allegedly attempted to set fire to the Consulate on July 2. There was no major damage nor any injuries and police were carrying out an investigation into the incident, the Indian news agency reported.

A video of the incident was verified by sources who told ANI the fire was suppressed quickly by the San Francisco Fire Department. Calling the attack nothing less than a “terror act” an official told ANI that no major damages or staffers were harmed.
