London stabbing: Man charged with murder of Indian woman; protest in politics.

Kirandeep Kaur, 24, was fatally stabbed at her home in London. A man has been charged with murder and attempted murder in connection with the incident.

Kaur's grieving parents, who sold land in India to fund her education and future aspirations in the UK, have requested urgent government assistance to repatriate her body. They suspect the attack was a racially motivated hate crime.

British Sikh groups have expressed concern over what they describe as a rise in race-based attacks targeting vulnerable individuals in the UK.

The case has drawn attention to the safety of international students in the UK, with community leaders calling for a thorough investigation into the motive behind the stabbing.
