Secretary General of Sikh Council UK Gurmel Singh has received a message of appreciation
from Lord Bourne, Parliamentary under Secretary of State for Faith and Integration. He thanked
members of the Sikh community for all the work being done following the horrific terrorist attack in
London yesterday.
The message came when Lord Bourne called the Secretary General following attendance to a
meeting at New Scotland Yard where the Home Secretary was present. Gurmel Singh took the
opportunity to brief Lord Bourne about a possible hate crime incident from this morning, which has
been reported to the police authorities and we were alerted to. Lord Bourne was assured that Sikh
Council UK will continue to play its part in urging vigilance whilst also encouraging the
maintenance of unity amongst the diverse communities of our country.
