Omschrijving

Rishi Sunak has already carved a niche for himself in history books by becoming the youngest British Prime Minister in 200 years and the first of Indian origin. But how much do you know about the new Prime Minister's roots? Research into Rishi's family history reveals an amazing tale of immigration and cultural exchange, set against the backdrop of British colonialism in Asia and Africa. Carrying his heritage forward, Rishi proudly identifies himself as British Indian.
So what is his history? Seven years. That's all it took for Sunak to rise to the top of British politics. SUNAK'S IS A TRULY ASTONISHING POLITICAL STORY. Professor Gopal Sharma's book is a journey starting from the 1930s when Rishi's grandparents reached East Africa from Punjab and his father was born in 1949. From Gujranwala (India) to Leicester (England) the family reached in the 1960s.One of their goals was providing their sons and daughter the best possible education. Rishi's rise from his mother's pharmacy to the best schools, to the University of Oxford, and to Stanford University where he met the daughter of Infosys chairman is a saga worth preserving. In 2015, Rishi was elected Conservative MP for Richmond, Yorkshire. At the age of thirty-nine, he was Chancellor of the Exchequer. His yeoman service during the pandemic saved lives and he became the most popular Tory minister. This is the story of how he won the hearts and minds of his people and on the auspicious Diwali day he won the Tory contest to make history as Britain's first Indian-origin PM. The tale of the Rise of Rishi Sunak is told in ten chapters with fervor and élan to make the readers exclaim: That which we are, we are!
