Who is Nadhim Zahawi, the British minister replacing Rishi Sunak?

Nadhim Zahawi Wednesday was appointed as Britain’s new finance minister after sitting minister Rishi Sunak resigned from his post in the Boris Johnson government.

Sunak, an Indian-origin investment banker-turned-politician, resigned after the latest scandal struck Johnson’s administration on Tuesday. Health minister Sajid Javid too sent his resignation.

Sunak was first elected to the British Parliament from the Richmond (Yorkshire) constituency in 2015. He was re-elected in 2017. Sunak is married to Akshata Murthy, the daughter of Infosys co-founder N R Narayana Murthy and author Sudha Murthy.

Among the many reasons to love her, is her good grace in the face of a generation’s obsession with those three short years of her life.
