00:00 Amid the ongoing India-Canada diplomatic rule over the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep

00:17 Singh Nijjar, Vikram Doraiswamy, the Indian High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, was

00:22 on Friday stopped from entering a Gurdwara in Scotland.

00:26 Doraiswamy was told that he is not welcome inside the Gurdwara as he was stopped by a

00:32 group of radical pro-Khalistan Sikh activists.

00:37 According to a purported video posted on the Instagram channel of Sikh Youth UK, a man reportedly

00:43 a pro-Khalistani activist was seen blocking Doraiswamy from entering the Glasgow Gurdwara

00:48 on Albert Drive.

00:49 They are hurting Sikhs in Canada and other places.

00:53 Any Sikh should protest against any Indian ambassador like we did here in Glasgow.

00:57 The man is heard saying in the video.

01:27 Giving out details on the incident, a pro-Khalistan Sikh activist said that some of them found

01:52 out that Doraiswamy had a meeting planned with the Gurdwara committee of the Glasgow

01:56 Gurdwara on Albert Drive.

01:58 A few people turned up and told him he was not welcome.

02:02 There was a slight confrontation, the activist said.

02:05 "I don't think the Gurdwara committee is too happy about what happened, but Indian

02:09 officials are not welcome in any Gurdwara in the UK," he claimed.

02:13 "We are fed up with the UK-India collusion.

02:15 The recent tensions since Hardeep Singh Nijjar's killing have led to British Sikhs being targeted.

02:20 This is to do with Avtar Singh Khanda and Jagtar Singh Johaldoo," he said.

02:25 The row between New Delhi and Ottawa erupted after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

02:29 on September 18 alleged the potential involvement of Indian agents in Nijjar's killing in June.

02:35 India strongly rejected the allegations as "absurd" and "motivated" and expelled

02:39 a senior Canadian diplomat in a tit-for-tat move to Ottawa's expulsion of an Indian

02:44 official over the case.

02:45 Meanwhile, sources on WNSA told news agency PTI that pro-Khalistan elements based in Canada

02:51 have been luring gullible Sikh youth to the North American country by sponsoring their

02:55 visas with the sole objective of using them to carry out their agenda on Canadian soil.
