In the wake of multiple attacks on Hindus and those of Indian origin in England and the recent attack on the Indian Mission in London, voices are growing louder in India urging the country to consider leaving the Commonwealth. The British government’s failure to take strong action against the violence and anti-India forces operating on its soil has led to calls for India to reassess its relationship with the Commonwealth.
The attacks on Hindus in England have been a cause for concern for some time now, with reports of increased violence and harassment targeting members of the community. However, the recent attack on the Indian Mission in London has raised the stakes considerably, with many in India viewing it as a direct attack on the country’s sovereignty itself.
Indians argue that it has been a mute spectator to the violence directed against India and Hindus, failing to take decisive action to contain anti-India forces operating on its soil. The Indian government has expressed its concern to the British authorities on numerous occasions, but the response has been deemed inadequate by many.
The growing discontent with the British government’s handling of the situation has led to a call for a reassessment of the country’s relationship with the Commonwealth. While India has historically maintained ties with the UK and other Commonwealth nations, there is a sense that this relationship may no longer be tenable given the current situation.
