On April 5, a Khalistan protest organized by the Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) group in Canada failed to gain traction, with only 10 individuals attending despite significant online promotion. The protest was planned outside the Triveni Temple and the Lakshmi Narayan Temple, but local law enforcement kept the small group at a distance from the temple premises. Authorities had anticipated a larger turnout, reflecting a disconnect between the group's online mobilization efforts and actual ground support. This event contrasts sharply with earlier claims during a Khalistan referendum in Surrey, where organizers alleged participation of over 130,000 people. Intelligence assessments have consistently questioned such figures, indicating a pattern where online hype does not translate into real-world support. Officials characterize the SFJ-Pannun network as a foreign-based separatist propaganda apparatus, noting that their calls for mobilization often lack substantial backing within the Sikh community. The low turnout at the protest is viewed as an embarrassment for the group's campaign strategy, which critics argue seeks to create divisions without genuine support.
