An American Sikh body has condemned the heckling of India’s Ambassador to the U.S. Taranjit Singh Sandhu during a visit to a New York gurdwara over the weekend and urged the shrine’s management to take strict action against those involved.
In a statement issued on Monday, Sikhs of America said gurdwaras are places of worship and should be free from personal political views.
Mr. Sandhu offered prayers at the Hicksville gurdwara in Long Island, New York on Sunday on the occasion of Gurpurab.
