The Indian government also condemned the attack on Hindus at a temple adding that the Canadian authorities had been requested well in advance to provide strong security measures for these events, which constitute routine consular work.

Trudeau's political rival, Poilievre, advocated for the ‘right to practice faith in peace’ and assured that he would end the environment of chaos in Canada.

Sharing a post on X, Poilievre wrote, "Completely unacceptable to see violence targeting worshippers at the Hindu Sabha Mandir in Brampton today."
