India High Commission, Aldwych, London, UK. 22nd October, 2015. Up to 400 and growing by the minute British Sikhs take part in a protest outside the India High Commission in central London in response to the desecration of their holy book in India. When pages of the Guru Granth Sahib, Sikhism's central text, were found ripped up recently, demonstrations spread across the northern Indian state of Punjab. Police used water cannons, batons and live rounds to disperse the crowds, and at one protest last week police opened fire, leaving at least two dead and more than 50 injured, according to reports. In the UK Jagmeet Singh - representing a Sikh point of view and from the educational charity Basics of Sikhi - appeared on BBC One's Sunday Morning Live programme. After a studio debate about interfaith marriage, Singh went off-topic, stood up in front of the camera and interrupted presenter Sian Williams. Across the world, many others are using social media to compare the recent clashes with the anti-Sikh riots in 1984, during which nearly 3, 000 Sikhs were killed.
