Navnit Dholakia, a leading NRI politician in the UK has been re-elected unopposed as the deputy leader of the Liberal Democrats peers in the House of Lords.
Lord Dholakia said: “One of the most important questions for the parliamentary party to answer is where they want to be at the end of this period of coalition government, and what we need to do in order to get there.” “We absolutely must ensure that we emerge from this coalition stronger and more confident, and with better electoral prospects than when we went into it,” he added.
Following the formation of the coalition government, the Liberal Democrat peers resolved to affirm the independent identity and integrity of the group, while also being committed to ensuring that the coalition government succeeds in its aims.
