Rishi Sunak has become UK’s first Indian-origin Prime Minister after being invited by King Charles III to form a government on Tuesday. Sunak is now the UK's 57th prime minister. He is the third prime minister this year and has entered Downing Street as the youngest PM in two centuries. 

Speaking at 10 Downing Street after taking charge, Sunak said, "We will create a future worthy of the sacrifices so many have made and fill tomorrow and every day thereafter with hope." 

Meanwhile, former Prime Minister Liz Truss has officially become the shortest-serving PM in UK history after she was forced to step down just 45 days into office.
