UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak recently attended a 'Ram Katha' event conducted by spiritual leader Morari Bapu at Jesus College, University of Cambridge.

He expressed that his faith guides him in every aspect of his life, including his role as Prime Minister. Sunak acknowledged the challenges and difficult decisions that come with the position, but mentioned that his faith provides him with courage, strength, and resilience to serve his country to the best of his abilities.
As the first Indian-origin Prime Minister of the UK, Sunak's appointment has been celebrated by Indians worldwide. He shared a special moment from 2020 when he lit Diwali diyas outside No. 11 Downing Street as the first British Indian Chancellor.
Sunak also revealed a Ganesha idol on his desk at 10 Downing Street, explaining that it serves as a constant reminder to listen and reflect on issues before taking action. He fondly recalled memories of his neighborhood temple in Southampton, where his family would often organize havans, pujas, and aartis.
Highlighting the shared values between Hinduism and British culture, Sunak emphasized the importance of selfless service, devotion, and faith. He also acknowledged the contributions of the Indian and East African diaspora in the UK, many of whom had humble beginnings.
Concluding his address with the words Jai Siya Ram, Sunak actively participated in an aarti on stage, further demonstrating his connection to his Hindu faith.
