Canadian authorities reportedly withdrew permission to hold a "Khalistan referendum" at the Tamanawis Secondary School in Surrey, a city in British Columbia, Canada, resulting in the cancellation of the event. According to Hindustan Times, the Surrey District School Board said the organizers of the event scheduled for Sunday violated the rental agreement. Its posters featured photographs of the school alongside an AK-47 machine gun and kirpan. Indo-Canadians, who were concerned over the referendum, welcomed the decision.
