Randhir Jaiswal said in the weekly press briefing, ‘We have expressed deep concern to the British authorities about the breach of security by Khalistani and extremist elements and we want strict action to be taken in this matter.’ He also said that this incident makes it clear what kind of support or license has been given to such elements and Britain’s attitude has been negligent towards their efforts to terrorize, threaten and obstruct India’s legitimate diplomatic work.
