London: With exit polls pointing to BJP's victory in general elections, Britain's opposition Labour party that was in power when a diplomatic boycott was imposed on Narendra Modi post 2002 Gujarat riots, has expressed willingness to work with him if he comes to power.
“The big expectation from India will be for it to fulfill the democratic mandate of peace and prosperity,” Labour party chair Harriet Harman said.
John Spellar, the Labour MP for Warley in the West Midlands said, “India has chosen who their leader is and in the event that the exit polls are correct, then the world will work with Mr Modi, and work with him for the benefit of both stability in that part of the world but also in terms of raising the standard of living of the people of India.”
