Punjabis will run the UK government: The new Labour government of Britain has taken charge and after the cabinet expansion, MPs of Punjabi origin are being given important responsibilities in the appointments to other posts. This is definitely increasing the influence of MPs of Punjabi origin in the Labour government of Britain.
In Britain, 13 MPs of Punjabi origin have won and reached the House of Commons, which is a history. Out of the 13 Punjabi MPs, six are women. Of these, 11 are from the Labor Party, while one Rishi Sunak and one Gagan Mahindra are from the Conservative Party. Prominent faces include Preet Kaur Gill from Birmingham Edgbaston, Seema Malhotra from Feltham and Heston and Tanmanjit Singh Dhesi from Slough. All three are residents of Jalandhar.
Preet Kaur Gill was the frontrunner to become a minister in Britain's new cabinet, but she has been appointed as the private secretary of the Department of Trade and Commerce. Gill's father Daljit Singh was the longest-serving president of the Guru Nanak Gurdwara in Smithwick, Britain's first Sikh pilgrimage site. In 2017, Gill became the first female British-Sikh Member of Parliament. Therefore, people of Punjabi origin are very happy with the appointment of Preet Kaur Gill.
In addition, first-time winner Satbir Kaur has been appointed as Parliamentary Secretary to the Cabinet, while Harpreet Kaur Uppal has been given the responsibility of Deputy Prime Minister's Office, Housing and Communities and Local Government Department.
On behalf of the Labour Party, Gurinder Singh Josian has been elected as a member of the National Executive Committee, whose main work is UK. This includes working in partnership with party MPs in Parliament, organized administration and local government to secure the objectives of the party. The appointment of these four is considered very important.
