There are calls for an apology from the Indian Business Association over a symbol some say is Islamophobic.
A bulldozer was seen at the India Independence Day Parade in Edison two weeks ago. It was decorated with images of the Indian prime minister and another leader and was used in the parade.
Some say that the bulldozer symbolizes the demolition of Muslim homes in India.
“As someone that is Muslim, I find this terrorizing and harassing and so does the Muslim community across New Jersey,” says Azra Baig, of South Brunswick. “What’s happening in India with bulldozers – people’s homes, people’s businesses are being bulldozed. People are being killed just because of their faith.”
The Edison Town Council says that it will look into the situation.
