Radical Sikhs prevent Indian high commissioner Vikram Doraiswami from entering gurdwara in Scotland even as US and Canada dial down rhetoric over the alleged Indian hand in the killing of pro-Khalistan extremist Hardeep Singh Nijjar

A group of radical British Sikh activists prevented Indian high commissioner to the UK Vikram Doraiswami from entering a gurdwara in Scotland on September 29.
A pro-Khalistan Sikh activist told TOI that some of them found out that Doraiswami had a meeting planned with the gurdwara committee of the Glasgow Gurdwara on Albert Drive.

“A few people turned up and told him he is not welcome and he left. There was a slight confrontation. I don’t think the gurdwara committee is too happy about what happened. But Indian officials are not welcome in any gurdwara in the UK,” he said.
