The High Commissioner began his speech in Hindi and recalled the contribution of Sikhs in the United Kingdom.
"Today is the birthday of Guru Nanak. A great day for every Sikh across the world. The precepts of the Sikh religion which he originated, kirat karo, naam japo are ones which extend well beyond just the Sikhs.
"Sikhs in the UK make an enormous contribution to our life, for example many who work in the national health service. We have over 25,000 Indians working in that service, including lots of British Sikhs," said Mr Ellis in a video message.
