Earlier, the members of the Indian community countered a pro-Khalistan rally by gathering outside the consulate in Canada to safeguard the office and the diplomats in Toronto. Turning the protest into a damp squib, the Indian diaspora, who outnumbered the Khalistani supporters, raised slogans like "Bharat Mata ki jai", "Vande Mataram" and "Long Live India".
