Notably, the spokesperson of Ministry of External Affairs, Raveesh Kumar had recently told media that the Indian government would demand from the UK government to not allow any anti-India activity in its country. But the UK government had rejected this on the grounds that no person could be barred from exercising his right to freedom of expression.
The spokesperson had also reiterated that the Sikh community in the UK had very strong ties with India and such activities were handiwork of only a very small section of people trying to spoil the relations between both countries.
