📢 SIKH COUNCIL UK has released updated guidance on Anand Karaj, reaffirming it is for two Sikhs who accept the faith. The leaflet supports Gurdwaras in upholding Sikh principles. #Sikhs #AnandKaraj #SikhWedding
I’m aware that in the past day a man has physically and verbally accosted at least 4 different turban wearing Sikhs including a child. Possibly for social media.
The police are aware of the racially aggravated nature and investigating.
Please report any instances to 999.

Lawyers for Scottish Sikh activist who has been locked up in India for almost nine years without conviction have said he has been granted bail.
Jagtar Singh Johal, from Dumbarton, was arrested in 2017 in connection with alleged terror offences.
He has been acquitted of charges in one court, but after nine years they still need to be addressed in federal court.
Details of bail await, but an extraordinary miscarriage of justice may be ending.

Today in Hayes we held a community commemoration of the tragic loss of Kirandeep Kaur, a young Sikh woman brutally murdered a week ago. The Sikh community is feeling especially vulnerable & is calling for increased support from government to address the rise in attacks on Sikhs.

Replying to @BBCNews
@bbcnews: A man broke into the home of a young mother and fatally stabbed her as she slept in bed with her husband and three-month-old baby, a court has heard.
Daniel Sean James, 46, is accused of attacking Kirandeep Kaur, 24, in her home on Uxbridge Road in Hayes, west London, on Sunday morning. #AntiSikhHate
Attacked, Sexually Assaulted, Beaten, Abused and Murdered… Enough is enough, yet the Government continues to ignore and neglect the Sikh Community!
‼️It’s time to stand up as a community and call this out! Please attend the Protest gathering on Sat 18 July in Hayes at 3pm‼️

Anti-Sikh hate is on the rise, with increasing attacks on Sikhs and the spread of misinformation online.
As Chair of the @AppgBritSikhs I invited Sikhs from across the UK to Parliament to meet with their MPs to discuss growing anti-Sikh hate and what more politicians can do to ensure Sikhs are free to practise their faith safely and without fear.
MPs, Sikh constituents and representatives from the Board of Deputies of British Jews all shared insights into their experiences and approaches to tackling hate crime.
It was a hugely productive session, with 30 MPs in attendance. Thank you to everyone who joined us.

Another tragic incident where a young Sikh woman Kirandeep Kaur, has been fatally stabbed and killed in Hayes, west London.
A man in his 20’s Daniel Sean James has been arrested and charged with murder.
Investigations are ongoing to determine any racial or religious hate crime committed in this horrific attack. However, questions remain on how long will the Sikh community be ignored and neglected by government in the face of increasing attacks?

A Sikh Lobby of the @UKParliament has been organised for Wednesday 15 July following the massive spike in Anti-Sikh hate crimes and right wing public hostility towards Sikhs since mid-May.
The lobby will also be an opportunity to address widespread institutional ignorance and discrimination across public bodies regarding Sikh articles of faith. @ShabanaMahmood @LabourSJ
The lobby is taking place in the Central Lobby of Parliament between 11:30am and 1:00pm and coincides with @Keir_Starmer’s final questions as Prime Minister. @10DowningStreet
Please do not miss the opportunity to attend and raise your Sikh voice.
The lobby will be followed by a briefing meeting in a large Committee Room (to be confirmed) between 1-3pm in the main Parliament building where @TheSikhNet will formally present to law makers the results from their recent spot survey on Anti-Sikh hate crimes since mid-May and the direct consequences of this spike in hate on British Sikh families.
This recent experience demonstrates a Statutory Code of Practice on Sikh articles of faith is long-overdue. It is now crucial for government to deliver this to resolve widespread institutional ignorance and discrimination across public sector bodies and to ensure that the law is respected and is applied fairly and without discrimination.
