High Commissioner of India to UK, HE Y K Sinha met Indian Journalists' Association on Thursday 30 March over a working lunch at the Quilon restaurant. He spoke on various subjects, including India's trade policy, importance of the diaspora in the UK, and the upcoming visits of UK Ministers for bilateral trade negotiations with India. He also said that post-study work visa for Indian students is very much a part of the bilateral agenda for India.
Indian students were formerly given a right to work in this country for two years, post graduation. This was scrapped by the Conservative government, when they came to power. HE Sinha also spoke about the upcoming Vaisakhi celebration organised by the High Commission of India for the first time on Sunday 30 April at SKLP Sports and Community Centre in Northolt. The High Commissioner told Asian Voice, “This is the 350th birth year of Guru Govind Singh. This event will be a great opportunity to come together to celebrate the fabulous festivities.” They are expecting over 20,000 visitors.
