Indian High Commission: Days after tricolor incident in London, Delhi police remove extra barricades in front of British High Commission | News from India

NEW DELHI: Days after pro-Khalistan activists stripped the tricolor of the Indian High Commission in the UK, the Delhi Police Barricades were removed in front of the British mission in the national capital on Wednesday.
Police said the barricades were “creating obstacles” for commuters and the safety of the British high commission it is intact.
“The security arrangements outside the UK High Commission are intact here. However, the barricades placed on the route to the commission which created obstacles for commuters have been removed,” a senior police officer told PTI.

The move comes days after India expressed strong disappointment over the lack of security at its UK high commission that led to the tricolor incident.
When contacted, a spokesperson for the UK High Commission said: “We do not comment on security issues.”
On Sunday, India summoned the British deputy high commissioner and asked for explanations about the complete “absence of security” after videos of the demolition of the Indian flag by pro-Khalistan elements emerged on social media.
The protest by separatists came in retaliation to police crackdown on ‘Waris Punjab De’ leader Amritpal Singh and his associates.
Top British officials have said the UK government will take over the security of the Indian High Commission “seriously”, condemning as “shameful” and “completely unacceptable” the vandalism of the Indian mission by a group of protesters waving Khalistani separatist flags
