Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether UK High Commission staff and their families in New Delhi have been affected by protests about the government of India's Citizenship (Amendment) Act; and if so, what support such people have received from the High Commission.

No British High Commission staff have been directly caught up in the violence, though the broader disruption has affected some of our local staff, who live or travel close to areas where violence occurred. The safety and security of all our staff is of paramount importance. Our advice to staff mirrors our Travel Advice, which we keep under constant review.
