Viral Video: Canada has been at the center of controversy, first due to a disturbing incident in Brampton where pro-Khalistani supporters attacked Hindu devotees with sticks. Following this, a new viral video has surfaced online showing Brampton police officers allegedly assaulting Hindu devotees who were protesting the Khalistani attack. The video, widely circulated on social media, has intensified scrutiny over Canada’s current stance towards its Indian community and reignited concerns about India-Canada relations.

Viral Video Shows Brampton Police Assaulting Hindu Devotees

In the viral footage, shared by an X (formerly Twitter) user named @DanielBordmanOG, Peel Regional Police officers in Brampton appear to engage in a forceful scuffle with Hindu devotees, allegedly shielding Khalistani groups who had reportedly harassed temple-goers during Diwali celebrations. The caption on the post reads: “Watch as Peel Regional Police in Brampton goes into the crowd to go after Hindu devotees after pushing them back to protect the Khalistanis who came to harass the temple goers on Diwali. Punching Hindus in the head and beating them with batons caught on video.”

A witness recorded the incident, identifying a bearded Brampton cop as one of the main aggressors. The footage shows the officer pushing and even punching Hindu protesters who were calling for action against the Khalistani faction that disrupted their religious gathering. The incident has left many questioning whether the police were showing favoritism towards Khalistani supporters, a notion that sparked backlash online, especially given the backdrop of strained India-Canada relations.

Background: India Canada Relations at a New Low

India-Canada relations have experienced a severe downturn, especially after Canada accused India of involvement in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian citizen and pro-Khalistan activist. India has strongly denied these allegations, demanding proof, which Canada has failed to provide. This diplomatic fallout led both countries to expel each other’s top diplomats, marking a significant decline in diplomatic ties. Recently, two Canadian officials publicly admitted to disclosing information about India’s supposed role in the incident to the U.S., which drew further criticism from India. This strained relationship has left many wondering if it has influenced the actions of Canadian authorities and whether it is contributing to the increasing extremism in Canada.

Is This the Canada We Once Knew?

Canada has long been regarded as a peaceful and inclusive nation, known for its multicultural values and a welcoming attitude toward immigrants, including a large Indian population. Millions of Indians have settled in Canada over the years, contributing to various fields and creating a close-knit bond between the two countries. For many Indians, Canada has represented hope and opportunity, a nation where they could thrive and express their cultural heritage freely.

However, this recent incident has cast a shadow on that reputation, with many questioning if Canada is becoming less tolerant and inclusive, especially toward the Hindu community. The police’s alleged actions against peaceful protesters raise concerns about whether Canada is shifting its stance on freedom of expression and public safety for its Hindu population.

Netizens React to the Brampton Cop's Assault on Hindu Devotees

The viral video has evoked an intense response on social media, with many netizens condemning the police’s actions. Social media users expressed outrage, with some calling for international recognition of the incident.

@ShefVaidya shared the video on X, stating: “If this is not police brutality, then I don’t know what is. @JustinTrudeau’s cops forcibly restraining an unarmed Hindu boy for opposing the attack on Hindu temples in Canada.”

Another user, @AmyMek, commented: “What the hell is happening in Canada?! Why was a Hindu teenager brutally beaten by Khalistani extremists—and shockingly, even by the Canadian police—simply for standing up against an attack on a temple?”

@Sputnik_India tweeted: “Canadian police officer beats #Hindu protestors with baton without provocation.”

@vijaygajera urged others to bring attention to the issue, tweeting: “Can we trend #HinduLivesMatter on international trends? Canadian Police choked a Hindu teenage boy and harmed him very seriously.”

These reactions highlight a growing concern within the Indian diaspora and beyond. Many users are now questioning Canada’s impartiality and expressing worries about the safety of Indian communities there.
