British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who is on a three-day visit to India to participate in the 18th G20 Summit, has said that he is a “proud Hindu” while speaking to news agency ANI.
In his interaction with the news agency ANI, Rishi Sunak also hoped to visit some of the temples in India during his brief visit to the country.
“I’m a proud Hindu, and that’s how I was raised. That’s how I am. Hopefully, I can visit a Mandir while I’m here for the next couple of days,” he said to ANI.
Discussing about Raksha Bandhan and Janmashtami, Rishi Sunak added, “We just had Raksha Bandhan, so from my sister and my cousins, I have all my rakhis, and I didn’t have time to celebrate Janmashtami properly the other day. But hopefully, I can make up for that if we visit a Mandir this time.”
“I think faith is something that helps everybody who has faith in their lives, particularly when you have these stressful jobs like I do. Having faith to give you resilience, to give you strength, is important,” Rishi Sunak further added.
