Thank you for contacting me about Jallianwala Bagh.
The tragedy of Jallianwala Bagh in 1919 is a shameful scar on British Indian history. I know that all my colleagues deeply regret what happened and the suffering this episode caused.
I am pleased that today the relationship between UK and India is a strong one, in which we collaborate to achieve mutual prosperity and security. I am enormously grateful for the contribution of British Indians to our society, and I hope that our relationship with India continues to flourish.
Thank you again for taking the time to contact me.
