BREAKING: Is Religious Freedom Under Attack in Toronto?
Today, a peaceful Hindu religious procession celebrating Rath Yatra in Toronto was disrupted when eggs were hurled at devotees from a nearby building. This despicable act of hatred has no place in our diverse society.
🇮🇳 India's Strong Response:
Ministry of External Affairs calls it a "despicable act" that goes against the spirit of the festival
India has strongly raised this matter with Canadian authorities
Demands accountability for those responsible and protection of religious rights
🙏 What is Rath Yatra?
This sacred Hindu festival celebrates Lord Jagannath and brings communities together in peace and devotion. To see it targeted with such hate is deeply disturbing.
💬 This is about more than eggs - it's about:
✅ Religious freedom
✅ Respect for diversity
✅ Standing against xenophobia and racism
✅ Protecting peaceful celebrations
We stand with the Hindu community in Toronto and everywhere. Religious celebrations should be spaces of joy and unity, not targets for hatred.
🤝 It's time for ALL of us to speak up against religious intolerance.
