New Delhi, Sept 08 (ANI): UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak opened up on his connect with Hinduism by calling himself a “proud Hindu”. He said that he didn’t have time to celebrate Janmashtami but hopeful of visiting Mandir in next couple of days. Speaking to ANI, he said, “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. 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 said, I can make up for that if we visit a Mandir this time. But it's something that is important to me. 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.”
