The Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Arindam Bagchi on Thursday condemned the vandalisation of a Hindu temple in Canada’s Windsor yesterday and said that the MEA is in touch with the Indian consulate. While speaking to the reporters on Thursday, the MEA spokesperson said, “We will continue to insist that action is taken against the perpetrators. They are identified and persecuted. Also, as important as measures to prevent such occurrences.” “We want these incidents not to happen, we want action and ensure that the Indian community’s places of worship are protected,” Arindam Bagchi added. “This issue has been taken up with the Canadian authorities to catch the perpetrator and ensure this doesn’t happen again,” he added. Clearing India’s stand on recent incidents of vandalisation at Indian consulates and High Commission, Arindam Bagchi said, “It (Vandalisation) has happened in a couple of places. We have made it pretty clear to our host governments what actions we expect from the host government in terms of what they need to do. We are in contact with the host governments. We had conveyed our expectations about the security of our premises and the safety of our personnel.” “What is important is action to be taken rather than assurances,” he added.
