Jaipur/IBNS: Former UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak arrived in Rasjathan's Jaipur on Friday to attend the Jaipur Literature Festival, which began on Thursday.

During the five-day event, which will end on February 3, Sunak's wife Akshata Murty, and her mother, Sudha Murty, a renowned author and Rajya Sabha MP, are scheduled to participate in a session titled "My Mother, Myself".

The session will be held from 10 am to 10:50 am on Saturday, as per the schedule.

Sudha Murty is the wife of Infosys co-founder N R Narayana Murthy.

Sunak stepped down as Conservative Party leader after a massive electoral defeat in July last year.

He is a member of Parliament for Richmond and Northallerton in Yorkshire.

The 18th edition of the renowned Jaipur Literature Festival is being held at Hotel Clarks Amer in the Pink City.

The event brings together leading voices from literature, politics, science and the arts, and serves as a forum for diverse perspectives and meaningful exchange.
