Rejected petition Public inquiry into BBC censorship and bias

The attempt to prevent Lord Singh speaking about a Sikh Guru who gave his life defending the right of all to freedom of belief, shows insensitivity & religious prejudice. We submit that what the Times calls ‘shabby treatment’ doesn't bring confidence in the BBC's commitment to ‘due impartiality’.
