Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday raised the issue of security of Indian diplomatic establishments in the United Kingdom in a telephonic conversation with his British counterpart Rishi Sunak and called for a strong action against anti-India elements, a statement said.
About the vandalism at the Indian High Commission last month, Sunak conveyed to Modi that the UK considers the attack “totally unacceptable” and assured the security of the Indian Mission and its personnel, the statement said.
Last month, the tricolour flying atop the Indian High Commission in London was grabbed at by a group of protesters waving separatist Khalistani flags.
Modi also sought progress on the return of economic offenders wanted in India. India is pursuing the extradition of Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi from the UK.
