London: Britain’s ruling Conservative Party has released a Hindi campaign song on Sunday in an attempt to woo the nearly 1.6 million strong Indian diaspora in the country.
The song ‘Theresa Ke Saath’ for the June 8 general election has been produced by Conservative Friends of India (CFI) co-chair and UK-based Indian businessman Ranjit S Baxi and calls on Indian-origin voters to back May as Britain’s Prime Minister for the next five years.
“The Hindi song has been especially composed for the General Election 2017 to promote connectivity with the 1.6 million British Indians to support May, who will provide strong and stable leadership for Britain and growth of the British economy,” said a statement from the team behind the song.
The catchy tune, available on YouTube channels, calls on voters to “join hands with Theresa May/To make Conservatives win. Five years with Theresa/For the Pride of Britain”.
The last time the team had released a similar Hindi song was to call for former Prime Minister David Cameron’s victory in the May 2015 general election. “Neela Hai Aasman (Blue Sky)”, in reference to the symbolic blue colour of the party, had called on voters to join hands with Cameron then, who went on to win a majority for the party but had to resign as PM following Britain’s vote to leave the European Union (EU) in the June 2016 referendum.
