Religious leaders condemn the attack, urging authorities to ensure justice and protection for minority communities.

Three men were arrested in Rishikesh for allegedly assaulting two Sikh men, vandalizing their showroom, and forcibly removing their turbans.
The incident, which occurred on Sunday, was captured on video and has drawn widespread condemnation from Sikh religious bodies and political leaders.
The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) called the act a violation of religious rights and demanded strict legal action against the perpetrators.
