The mayoral election for London has been both exciting and intriguing. When western world is gripped with the climate of Islamaphobia, one just wonders if it is possible for a Muslim candidate, alleged to have links with extremist to win this major post, Mayor of London! Although, I haven’t voted for Khan, my heartiest congratulation to him. No doubt he will do a wonderful job for Londoners. His win is a big victory for Jeremy Corbyn and Labour. Looking at the overall results, it seems Labour is in the course of revival. No one can deny that Britain is a fair and just democracy, secularist where all have equal opportunities. Let us hope Sadiq Khan can remove tension between Muslims and host community and make us safe and secure.
