New Delhi: A tableau celebrating the assassination of former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi by her Sikh bodyguards was paraded in Brampton on June 4. A video showing the same has been making rounds on the internet, in which the statue of Indira Gandhi can be seen drenched in blood.
Indira Gandhi was assassinated on October 31, 1984, by her bodyguards months after ‘Operation Bluestar’.
Social media users were quick to target Canada’s Justin Trudeau administration for blatant negligence. “Shame on Justin Trudeau govt which relies on Khalistani elements for vote bank,” wrote a Twitter user named Anshul Saxena. He added, “How Canada allowed this? Celebrating the killing of former Prime Minister of India is not freedom of expression.”
