The Khalistan independence referendum in Auckland concluded successfully, witnessing participation from thousands of voters.

The voting process saw overwhelming enthusiasm, with long queues forming well before the start time. This turnout led organizers to extend the voting period by an additional hour to accommodate everyone. Members of the Sikh community traveled from other cities to join the significant event.

Reports from international media highlighted that attendees expressed strong sentiments, chanting anti-India slogans and displaying palpable excitement as they voted.

The Independent Punjab Referendum Commission noted that over 37,000 people cast their votes. Many participants reportedly waited for up to four hours to make their voices heard.
