At the end of the video, another man reaches the balcony from inside to avert any more harm to the flag.The Indian community on March 19 held a large gathering in front of the Indian High Commission in London against the "disrespectful act" of Khalistan supporters towards the Indian flag and demanded that the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan and the British government act against the perpetrators at the earliest.The desecration of the Indian Flag led to an unprecedented outpouring of support from the diverse Indian community settled here in Britain.
