The Indian government has strongly condemned the recent vandalism of the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Chino Hills, California. The temple was defaced with anti-India graffiti, marking another incident in a series of attacks on Hindu places of worship in the U.S. The Ministry of External Affairs called the act “despicable” and urged local authorities to take strict action against the perpetrators while ensuring the security of such sites. Advocacy groups like the Coalition of Hindus of North America have also expressed concern, linking the incident to rising Hinduphobia. This is not the first case of temple vandalism in the area, with similar incidents reported in recent years.
