Inspiring moment Sikh man is called to the Bar - wearing his traditional Sikh robes
Watch the inspiring moment a Sikh man is called to the Bar - wearing his traditional robes.
Lovejoyt Singh, 24, was called to the Bar last month after completing the first stages of law training - and was able to wear his Sikh attire to the event.
The future barrister was called to the Bar during a special ceremony at Temple Church, London, on November 25.
The inspiring video shows Lovejoyt wearing traditional Sikh robes, known as Baana, as he collects his certificate - which he described "such a privilege".
Lovejoyt, from Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, said: "In this profession, you often don't see anything beyond the realms of tradition.
"It's very rare to see someone wearing traditional robes - normally everyone just wears black suits and ties.
"But after all these years of hard work, my community is very proud of what I have achieved so being called to the Bar in my robes is a privilege.
"It's a victory not just for me but for all minority communities out there - I'm not saying I'm a role model, but they need to see people they can relate to.
"I believe be the change you want to see in the world - and this is definitely a step in the right direction."
