West london police are planning to step up security all around Wembley stadium tomorrow amid protest groups who are planning a mass rally to welcome Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi to the UK. Over 50,000 people are expected to join political and cultural leaders for the ‘UK welcomes Modi’ reception- believed to be the largest reception a foreign head of State has ever been given in the UK. However, both the police and the local council are bracing themselves for an equally wide protest from campaigners who accuse the prime minister of Human Rights abuses against religious and ethnic minorities in India. His regime is allegedly brutal and operate an arbitrary system based on Hindu supremacy which persecutes minority Muslims and others minority groups. He is also accused of being responsible for the death of thousands of Muslims and Hindus during a violent riot in the state of Gujarat when he was Chief Minister in 2002.
The planned reception only accessible to those who have been specially invited has been named ‘Two Great Nations, One glorious future’, and will kick off with a specially produced cultural show to honor what is seen as a ‘landmark visit’ designed to consolidate business links and diplomatic ties between the UK and India worth billions of pounds. Many regard Prime Minister Modi as an authoritarian leader with links to the RSS party- a party believed to consist of fascist and violent thugs, many of whom are admirers of the late notorious dictator, Adolf Hitler.
And Protest groups have announced their plan to conduct a march on Downing Street for the Indian PM’s meeting with Prime Minister David Cameron tomorrow and also outside Wembley Stadium. The event is bound to put the Indian prime Minister on the spot, who really must seek to appease his critics and accusers in relation to the brutal regime he is accused of presiding over. It will be absolutely immoral to celebrate a national leader if indeed his regime is guilty of atrocious crimes against humanity. Prime Minister Modi will need to address these wide concerns, and it will be hard for Cameron to avoid the issue too.
