India’s External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar had said in New Delhi earlier this month that the radical extremist Khalistani ideology is not good for India or its allies such as the US, Canada, Britain and Australia. On March 19 this year, a group of pro-Khalistan protesters attacked and damaged the Indian consulate in San Francisco.
They broke the temporary security barricade put up by the police and put up two Khalistani flags inside the consulate premises. Those flags were soon removed by two consular personnel.
