TORONTO: Even as extremist elements have tried to create a divide between the communities in recent times, representatives of 30 gurdwaras and Hindu mandirs in British Columbia have come together to form a unified front to thwart such attempts.

Nearly 60 representatives from the participating places of worship attended a meeting in this regard in Vancouver on Saturday.

The venue was the Khalsa Diwan Society or KDS' historic Ross Street gurdwara in the city.

Among the resolutions that were passed at the meeting was that Hindu-Sikh unity would be maintained and that no protests should be allowed within the vicinity of a gurdwara or temple.
