US: Hindu Temple Vandalised With 'Free Palestine' Graffiti In New Jersey

In a disturbing development, a Hindu temple has been vandalised in United States' New Jersey.

CoHNA, a Hindu advocacy group in the US, have condemned the incident and urged the authorities to bring the perpetrators to swift justice.

According to CoHNA, “Free Palestine” graffiti on a Hindu temple is a result of the Hinduphobic narrative peddled by “academics”, who portray Hindus as “colonisers” of Kashmir and draw false parallels with Palestine.

The outfit said that Shree Umiya Dham temple was also one of over 50 organisations who signed a coalition letter against Teaneck Democratic Municipal Committee's Hinduphobic and hate filled resolution.

"This latest act of vandalism adds to the growing concerns of the Hindu community in NJ [New Jersey] and beyond," it added.
