Monday's debate may have changed people's mind on who to vote and how to vote.

A slick video with a foot-tapping song in Hindi called 'Theresa ke saath', and images of Prime Minister Theresa May wearing a sari and meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi during her November 2016 visit to India, was released by the Conservative party on the weekend to woo the 1.5 mn Indians living in the UK. This is going to be a unique and exciting election, while Mrs May's manifesto mainly addresses the mainstream voters, the number of Indian candidates for Conservative party has reduced from 17 in 2015 to 13 this year.While the Tory lead has gone down by 1% to 43%, according to a YouGov poll, Labour has gone up by 4% to 38%.

Ameet Jogia and Navin Shah stand for community The election on June 8 is about the direction this country will take through Brexit and beyond. Among the 44 Brit-Asian candidates across various parties, Ameet Jogia is one of the key candidates in a winnable constituency. He is standing against Labour's Barry Gardiner, who has allegedly been amidst various controversies. Ameet Jogia does not come from a privileged Ameet Jogia background – in fact his family was homeless when he was young and he then grew up on a council estate. But he understands the needs and concerns of our local community. Navin Shah a very popular and highly experienced activist is contesting Harrow East constituency. He brings with him decades of political experience and community work, winning 3 times the London Assembly seat of Harrow and Brent. A champion of equalities, Navin has worked relentlessly for community cohesion and is someone who has takes pride in being an antiracist campaigner. He is Navin Shah passionate about combating cuts in key services like Police, NHS and Education. Navin's contribution to the Indian community is unparalleled. Navin is standing against Bob Blackman whom he defeated in 2008 in the Assembly election. To read more about his pledges see page 15.
