Stephen has co-signed a letter to the Chief Minister of Punjab, Captain Amarinder Singh. It asks that he help UK nationals in the state to return home.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office is working on bringing British nationals back to the UK, but there are currently no flights from Punjab. People are required to travel to Delhi. In reality, given the national lock-down in India, this is almost impossible.
Speaking about the letter, Stephen said: "There is a growing sense for British citizens in Punjab that they have been abandoned by the UK government.
“I hope the the Chief Minister can now step in. We have asked that he make special arrangements for Amritsar Airport to facilitate the return of British citizens and British Indians.”
