Indian Ambassador to the United States, Taranjit Singh Sandhu, pays homage on a visit to the Hicksville gurdwara in Long Island, New York.
“Privileged to join the local Sangat, including from Afghanistan, at Guru Nanak Darbar of Long Island in celebrating Gurpurab- listened to Kirtan, spoke about Guru Nanak’s everlasting message of togetherness, unity, and equality, partook langar, and sought blessings for all,” Sandhu said in a post on X.
Sandhu visited the Guru Nanak Darbar, took part in the local sangat to celebrate Gurpurab, and offered prayers on the occasion.
As per the reports, Sandhu was confronted by extremist elements who were making statements about India-designated terrorists Hardeep Singh Nijjar and Gurpatwant Singh Pannun. A lone protester raised the Khalistani flag outside the gurdwara when the Indian envoy was leaving the premises in his vehicle.
