Hindu Temple Vandalised In California With Anti-India Graffiti
New York/Internet/Hyderabad, Mar 9 (Maxim News): A prominent Hindu temple in California was defaced with anti-India graffiti by some unknown persons in another incident targeting the community’s sacred spaces in the US. Bochasanwasi Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS) said that its Shri Swaminarayan mandir in Chino Hills city of San Bernardino County faced desecration. Chino Hills borders Los Angeles County.
“In the face of another Mandir desecration, this time in Chino Hills, CA, the Hindu community stands steadfast against hate. Together with the community in Chino Hills and Southern California, we will never let hate take root,” the BAPS Public Affairs posted on X. “Our common humanity and faith will ensure that peace and compassion prevail,” it said, without providing details of the incident.
Hindu American Foundation, a non-profit advocacy group, said the vandalism at the largest Hindu temple in California occurred on Saturday and demanded the FBI and its Director Kash Patel to probe the matter. “We ask @ChinoHills_PD, @FBI @FBIDirector Kash @DNIGabbard to investigate this latest in a string of anti-Hindu hate crimes on our sacred spaces,” it said.
The Coalition of Hindus of North America (CoHNA), an advocacy group dedicated to improving the understanding of Hinduism in North America, drew attention to past such cases and demanded a thorough investigation. (Maxim News)
