Several opposition parties on Monday said that the responsibility of protecting the Indian embassies and High Commission abroad is of the host country and the Indian government must take up the matter diplomatically with these countries, including the UK, Canada, Australia, the US etc.
The reaction from the opposition parties comes after the Indian national flag was pulled down by Khalistani supporters in London.
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said, “This can’t be allowed and the External Affairs Ministry should take the matter to the host countries to protect the High Commission and embassies.”
Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray) MP, Priyanka Chaturvedi, said, “UK government should apologise to India and take action against the miscreants.”
Meanwhile, The Congress on Monday condemned the incident in London and blamed the UK government for failing to protect the Indian High Commission there.
Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh said, “The pulling down of the national flag at the Indian High Commission in London by pro Khalistani elements is totally unacceptable and should be condemned in the strongest possible terms. The British government has failed miserably in its most basic responsibility and must be held accountable.”
