The UK general election is set to make history with the most diverse Parliament yet, including a significant number of parliamentarians of Indian heritage. With the Labour Party projected to have the largest number of ethnic minority MPs, the new Parliament will better represent the diversity of the British electorate.
The upcoming election will likely see a record number of ethnic minority representatives, reflecting the changing demographics of the country. Notable candidates include Praful Nargund, Jas Athwal, and Rajesh Agrawal vying for seats in key constituencies.
