The Indian High Commission said that it has reported this “disgraceful incident” to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and the Metropolitan Police.

The incident occurred amidst the ongoing diplomatic row between India and Canada over the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

In a purported video posted on the Instagram channel of ‘Sikh Youth UK,’ a man, reportedly a proKhalistani activist, was seen blocking the Indian envoy from entering the Glasgow Gurdwara at Albert Drive. “They are hurting Sikhs in Canada and other places, every Sikh should protest against any Indian ambassador like we did here in Glasgow,” the man is heard saying in the video.
