Editorial comment
The USA, worrying about human rights in India, should focus on stopping such incidents in its own backyard ! |
New York (USA) – Two Sikh men were attacked in the Richmond Hills in New York. One of the attackers has been arrested. The Indian Ambassador has protested against this attack.
2nd attack on 2 Sikhs within 10 days exactly at same location in Richmond Hill
Apparently, targeted hate attacks against Sikhs happening in continuation. We condemn this in strong words. These shd be investigated & perpetrators must be held accountable @IndiainNewYork @USAndIndia pic.twitter.com/Ld0RIxIeNn— Manjinder Singh Sirsa (@mssirsa) April 12, 2022

This incident took place when the two Sikh youth went for a morning walk. 10 days ago, yet another Sikh man was attacked at the same place.
