Jalsa Salana, the UK's largest Muslim convention, is proceeding in Hampshire with increased security including hundreds of additional staff and enhanced coordination with emergency services. This comes amid rising anti-Muslim sentiment and follows an incident last month where another Islamic event was closed early due to arrests over a suspected far-right threat. The heightened security measures reflect concerns over hate crimes.
