Temple vandalism report
Today early, BAPS public affairs shared information about the incident in X, stating that they would resist any attempt to sow discord. “Given another desecration of mandir, this time in Chinese Hills, California, the Hindu community remains firm against hatred. Together with the community in Chinese Hills and southern California, we will never let hate cracks. Our common humanity and faith will ensure that peace and compassion prevail,” Baps public affairs said in social networks.
Subsequently, the Hindus coalition of North America (Cohna) highlighted the past incidents and said: “Another shattered Hindu temple: this time, the iconic Baps temple in Chinese Hills, Ca. is just another day in a world where the media and academics will insist that there is no anti -Hindú hatred and that #hindupuchobia is just a construction of our imagination. It is not surprising that this happens as the Khalisto reference day. ‘
Cohna works as a community -based defense group dedicated to promoting consciousness about Hinduism and addressing the challenges faced by the Hindu community in North America.
Prior vandalism incidents aimed at temples were reported last year, including an attack against the Baps Shri Swaminarayan Mandir In Sacramento, California, on September 25, shortly after a similar incident in Baps Mandir in New York.
