DoJ urged to investigate US group accused of working as Modi-backed foreign agent'
Briefly

The Fremont Gurdwara Sahib, prominently attended by around 5,000 Sikhs weekly, has petitioned the Trump administration to investigate the Hindu American Foundation (HAF). The Gurdwara claims HAF operates as a foreign agent for the Indian government, implicating the Foundation in advocacy for Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his party. They essentially want the Department of Justice to enforce the Foreign Agents Registration Act, which would compel HAF to disclose its activities. In response, HAF denied any affiliations or wrongdoing, attributing the claims to coordinated attacks from those seeking an independent Sikh state in India.
