AN Indian diplomat has praised the zero-tolerance approach to criminal activity and harassment in the UK, pointing out that it has helped maintain harmony between different communities.
Hon. Consul for India in Wales, Raj Aggarwal OBE, also commended the approach of the South Wales Constabulary for encouraging social cohesion.
“I am also so pleased that we have zero tolerance policy to harassment and criminal activity in Wales, this helps build, maintain cohesion, relationships and harmony between communities which already exists. Thank you, chief constable Matt Jukes and your team (who was in attendance) for your immense support," he said at the first ever Diwali celebrations hosted by Welsh First Minister Mark Drakeford yesterday (24).
