TOI Correspondent from London:Poll Do you believe that the protests outside the Indian high commission in London were justified? The Indian side, separated by police barricades, displayed a massive Tricolour on the building and used a loudspeaker to outvoice the Pakistani protesters, singing the national anthem and chanting “Jai Shri Ram”, “Vande Mataram”, and “Bharat Mata Ki Jai”. Some could be seen shaking water bottles.The Pakistani protesters raised slogans against PM Narendra Modi and shouted “Pakistan Zindabad”, but lacked placards and enthusiasm. Richard Tice, deputy leader of Reform UK, shared a video of the confrontation, writing: “If it's not Gaza it’s India v Pakistan sectarian politics being fought on our London streets. UK multiculturalism has been a DISASTER!” GB News aired a segment titled “Has multiculturalism failed?” focusing on the protest.
