Nation First News: Within hours after Boris Johnson was announced as the PM of United Kingdom, Indian origin Priti Patel on Wednesday took charge as Britain’s first Indian-origin Home Secretary in the newly-unveiled Cabinet.
The Gujarati-origin politician, who is a prominent guest at all major Indian diaspora events in the UK, was among the most vocal critics of Theresa May’s Brexit strategy. Priti is a Member of Parliament for Witham in Essex since 2010.
Her parents are originally from Gujarat, India but moved to Uganda.
