Is it hard for young Asians to admit that they are not religious? 70 per cent of young people in the UK say they do not have a religion.

Is it hard for young Asians to admit they're not religious? 70 per cent of young people in the UK say they don't have a religion. Then Dil speaks to former police officer Gurpal Verdi. He's got a new book out, talking about his experiences in London's Metropolitan Police, including his two wins against the Met in employment tribunals. After this, we discuss a new campaign fronted by actors Bhasker Patel and Sanjeev Bhaskar, aimed at alerting young Asians to the early signs of a stroke. Bhasker Patel tells us why young Asians are more at risk of having a stroke, and Amit Amin tells us about having a stroke at the age of 36. We also discuss a government-funded campaign to encourage Muslim families to adopt or foster. We talk to Aamer Naeem from the charity Penny Appeal, who are behind the new guidelines, Shahena Shah and Abida Sanni, who have fostered children, and Sonia Hamdani, who was fostered. And then we discuss remarks from a professor in Kerala, southern India, who compared students' breasts to watermelons. His comments have drawn protests from female students at the college.
