      UK PM Sunak, his wife figure on 'Asian Rich List 2022' in UK

      British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his wife Akshata Murty have made their debut on the UK's 'Asian Rich List 2022' topped by the Hinduja family.

      Sunak and his wife, whose father N R Narayana Murthy co-founded Indian IT major Infosys, are ranked 17th on the list, with an estimated wealth of 790 million pounds.

      The combined wealth of this year's list sits at 113.2 billion pounds, an increase of 13.5 billion pounds over that of last year.

      The list is topped by the Hinduja family for the eighth consecutive time with an estimated wealth of 30.5 billion pounds, an increase of 3 billion pounds from the last year.

      Sunak made an impressive comeback to become the UK’s first Indian-origin Prime Minister on October 25, seven weeks after he had lost the race for 10 Downing Street to Liz Truss.

      The 42-year-old investment banker-turned politician is the youngest British Prime Minister in 210 years and also the UK’s first Hindu and British Asian Prime Minister.

      This year's Asian Rich list boasts of 16 billionaires from the UK, one more than the last year with most of the billionaires seeing their wealth increase or stay the same as last year.

      Sri Prakash Lohia and family have seen the biggest increase in wealth on this year's list, a rise of 4 billion pounds to 8.8 billion pounds.

      Lakshmi Mittal and his son Aditya (12.8 billion pounds) and Prakash Lohia and family (8.8 billion pounds) and Nirmal Sethia (6.5 billion pounds) are other richest on the list.
