Top Indian diplomat blocked from Glasgow gurdwara visit

· 1 min read

BBC News:

India has complained to the Foreign Office after a top diplomat was confronted by protesters at a gurdwara in Glasgow.

The High Commission of India said Vikram Doraiswami had been invited to the place of worship to discuss community and consular issues.

But he left after he was confronted by a small number of activists on Friday.

A Sikh youth group later claimed there was a longstanding ban on Indian officials visiting gurdwaras.

The confrontation follows an international row over suggestions Indian agents may be linked to the murder of a Sikh separatist in Canada.

India has strongly rejected the claim by Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau that there is “credible evidence” of Indian involvement in the shooting of Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia in June.
