London: Rishi Sunak’s government in Britain has announced a security fund of more than 117 million pounds for the next four years for British Muslims. Making the announcement on Monday on the first fast of Ramzan, the government said that this amount will be provided for the security of Muslims in the next four years. This includes protecting mosques, Muslim faith schools and other community centers to tackle anti-Muslim hate crimes.
The government said that approximately GBP 31 million will also be made available to protect democratic processes and institutions in response to growing ‘extremist threats’ in the country. These will include technology such as CCTV and alarm systems in mosques, installation of secure perimeter fencing in Muslim faith community centers and madrassas (faith schools). Britain’s Home Secretary James Cleverley announced, ‘There is no place for anti-Muslim hatred or hatred in our society.

This is why we have committed to this funding, giving reassurance and confidence to Britain’s Muslims at a time when it is most needed.
