Lord Rami Ranger has in a strongly worded letter urged UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman to initiate legal action against the group of Khalistani separatists who attacked the Indian High Commission in London in order to send a clear signal that Britain has Zero tolerance for such violent protests.
“Please set examples by bringing the culprits to justice,” the member of the House of Lords has stated in his letter.
His letter refers to the group of Khalistani separatists who attacked the Indian High Commission in London on Sunday, trying to pull down the Indian flag to replace it with their own and vandalising India House.
“The incident shocked everyone, especially the Indian diaspora in the United Kingdom. The attack was not just on Indian sovereignty but also on Britain’s law and order,” Lord Rami’s letter states.
He has pointed out that “sadly, this was not the first time such an incident occurred and may not be the last time unless a clear message is sent to all who think they can get away with such unruly acts and behave lawlessly with impunity.”

“Our ability to provide safety and security to foreign diplomats must be a top priority, as such actions adversely affect our relationships with the concerned country,” the letter observes.
Lord Rami has emphasised the need to send a clear signal that Britain has Zero tolerance when it comes to anyone protesting in other than a peaceful and orderly manner. These unlawful activities affect Britain’s reputation worldwide and damage our fragile race relations. Britain is a multicultural nation and must take any breach very seriously where anyone tries to use race or religion to shatter our harmony, the letter adds.
