Rishi Sunak, UK's first Indian-origin PM | The Hindu

In July 2022, Rishi Sunak resigned as UK’s finance minister, admitting that it could be his “last ministerial job”.  

Quite to the contrary, though. He soon became a Prime Ministerial candidate following a dramatic turn of events in British politics. In that contest, he finished the runner-up. 

Cut to October, Rishi Sunak is now UK’s next Prime Minister. He replaces Liz Truss, whose tenure ended in just 45 days.  Rishi Sunak is UK’s first Indian-origin prime minister. 

How did life come a full circle for Sunak in a matter of months, and how did he get here?
