At least three Indian-origin faces are set to hold key posts in Britain’s new Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Cabinet. While Priti Patel has been appointed as the home secretary, Rishi Sunak, the son-in-law of Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy, is Britain's new Chief Secretary to the Treasury.

Hampshire-born Sunak, 39, has been MP for Richmond, Yorkshire, since 2015. A businessman, Sunak studied in Oxford and Stanford universities. 

Alok Sharma, who has been appointed as the Secretary of State for International Development, is the third other Indian-origin face in the Cabinet. He was the employment minister in the Theresa May government.
