People in India had fallen victim to the ideology of extremism and this extremist thinking was reflected in an incident in which an Indian-origin citizen tried to enter the White House in Washington and carry out an attack. According to Hindustan Times, the U.S. authorities this week arrested 19-year-old, Indian-origin Sai Varshith Kandula for crashing a truck into White House barriers when Joe Biden was inside. The young man who was accused of deliberately crashing a rented U-Haul truck into the White House barrier told authorities that he wanted to get inside the mansion to “seize power” and “kill” US President Joe Biden, according to media reports. US Park Police arrested Sai Varshith Kandula after he crashed the truck into the security barriers on the north side of Lafayette Park shortly before 10 pm on Monday, sending multiple pedestrians running from the scene, The Washington Times reported. Kandula, of Chesterfield, Missouri, rented the truck on Monday night immediately after flying from St Louis to Dulles International Airport on a one-way ticket, a Secret Service agent said in a statement of facts filed in federal district court in Washington DC, NBC News reported. He drove the vehicle onto a sidewalk outside the White House and into a metal barrier just north of the White House, according to the document.
