Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday congratulated Keir Starmer for securing a victory in the UK General Election. “Heartiest congratulations and best wishes to Keir Starmer on the remarkable victory in the UK general elections. I look forward to our positive and constructive collaboration to further strengthen the India-UK Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in all areas, fostering mutual growth and prosperity,” he wrote on X. The British people have “delivered a sobering verdict,” Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said on Friday, as he conceded defeat to the left-of-center Labour. The Keir Starmer-led party will now form a government to replace the Conservatives for the first time in 14 years. Earlier on Thursday, Brits cast their ballots in a national election to choose the 650 lawmakers who will sit in Parliament for the next five years. With most seats counted, Labour, led by Starmer, has gained at least 400 seats in Parliament. #pmmodi #ukelections #ukelections2024 #2024ukelections #rish
