British leaders on Saturday denounced the actions of radical Sikh elements who prevented Indian high commissioner Vikram Doraiswami from entering a gurdwara in Scotland, even as India urged UK authorities to act against those involved in the incident.
A group of radical Sikh activists scuffled with members of the management committee of Gurdwara Guru Granth Sahib on Albert Drive in Glasgow and sought to forcibly open the door of the vehicle in which Doraiswami had arrived at the place of worship on Friday.
In videos posted online, the activists linked their actions to the Canadian government's allegation that Indian government agents were linked the killing of Khalistani leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June. India has dismissed Canada's accusation as "absurd". The Indian envoy had been invited by the gurdwara's management, but some radicals tried to stop him from entering the gurdwara, people familiar with the matter said. Doraiswami left the scene to avoid an altercation.
