On 24 September 2002, multiple terrorists attacked the Swaminarayam Akshardham Temple in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India, killing 33 and injuring more than 80. India's National Security Guard intervened and ended the siege the next day, killing the terrorists. Six people were later arrested by Gujarat Police but acquitted in 2014 by the Supreme Court. In response to the attack, Pramukh Swami Maharaj, along with government officials, appealed to maintain peace. The complex re-opened on 7 October 2002, 14 days following the attack.
