In a post on X, Malviya said the demolition was not merely an act of vandalism but reflected systematic negligence toward Sikh religious and historical sites. He alleged that symbols of Sikh heritage in Pakistan were being destroyed without justification.

Malviya further alleged that while Pakistani agencies were attempting to influence sections of the Sikh community against India, the country was simultaneously erasing traces of Sikh history, faith and identity.

The BJP leader said the issue highlighted concerns regarding the protection of minority heritage in Pakistan and criticised what he described as a contradictory approach by the Pakistani establishment.

Pakistan has failed its Sikh minorities yet again.
