Watch: Indians, Khalistani group clash in Canada’s Brampton during Diwali
Conflicts between Indian nationals and a pro-Khalistani group broke out in Canada’s Brampton during Diwali celebrations. Clashes broke out at Westwood Mall, where both groups engaged in a head-to-head flag-waving show.
The video, which has now gone viral, shows a crowd of around 400-500 people gathering in the shopping mall parking lot and raising flags during the melee.
With one group shouting ‘Khalistan Zindabad and waving the yellow Khalistani flag, the other group shouted ‘Jai Shree Ram’ and waved the Indian national flag.

During the scuffle, a man was injured and police temporarily closed the area. Meanwhile, Canadians have demanded that the authorities take action against those who created the chaos.
Earlier last week, India asked Canada to stop the November 6 civil meeting on Khalistan, citing the vote would put India’s territorial integrity and sovereignty in jeopardy.
