Sikh activist in UK told to increase security over Hindu nationalist threats
AI Summary
A UK-based Sikh activist, Paramjeet Singh Pamma, has been advised by police to increase his home security due to threats allegedly stemming from Hindu nationalist elements linked to the Indian government. Singh Pamma, a figure in the Khalistan movement advocating for an independent Sikh state, believes the threats are a result of his activism and criticizes the UK government for not taking Indian transnational repression seriously. This comes amidst growing concerns in the UK about foreign governments targeting dissidents, with India listed as a country of concern for transnational repression. Singh Pamma's claims follow increased scrutiny after the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada and an attempted assassination in the US, both allegedly linked to the Indian government. The UK is currently pursuing closer ties with India, viewing it as a key strategic partner.
