VANCOUVER (CANADA): A large Azad Khalistan rally against India in Surrey, British Columbia, marked the holding of Khalistan referendum today.
The participants of the rally carrying Khalistan flags marched for two kilometers to Guru Nanak Sikh Gurdawara where Shaheed Hardeep Singh Nijjar Centre has been set up for the voting.
The participants chanted slogans such as “Delhi bane ga khalasa,” “Lay ke rahain gay Khalasa,” “Punjab Banay Ga Khalistan” and “Azad Khalistan,” filling the air with their fervent chants.
They demanded justice for the family and community of Nijjar, urging the authorities to bring his killers to account.
