We strongly condemn the barbaric terrorist attack in Pulwama, India, on February 14, 2019, which killed 40 CRPF personnel and wounded 35. The Indian community in the Chicago area grieves with the families of the victims. Terrorists are no one's friends.

We held a candlelight peace march against terrorism at the 9/11 Memorial Center (behind Naperville City Hall) on Monday, February 18, 2019, from 6–7 PM, to protest terrorism and stand with the families of the fallen.

  • When: Monday, 2/18/2019, 6–7 PM
  • Where: 9/11 Memorial Center, Naperville
  • Facebook event page

This is an archived 2019 community announcement.
