Canada election 2025: General elections are going to be held in Canada on April 28 and the nomination process is going on. Meanwhile, the discussion of people of Indian origin in the whole country is in full swing. The echo of candidates of Indian origin is also being heard in the federal elections this time.
In the 45th federal election, this time 4 Gujarati candidates are also trying their luck. All these candidates are mostly migrant of the first generation. So let’s about these four candidates:
Jayesh Brahmabhatta
Jayesh Brahmabhatta, who was the first civil engineer and is now in real estate business, came to Canada from Gujarat in 2001. Now he is contesting elections in the Parliament of Canada and has become a candidate from People’s party. He said, “We believe in freedom, responsibility, justice and respect for everyone and this thinking connects me with this party.”
Brahmabhatta says that many people want change and with this hope they have contested. It is not just a matter of ideas for him to come into politics, but now political parties are beginning to recognize Indians as an important community. He said that communities like Gujarati are now getting a good opportunity to raise their voice in politics and they should take full advantage of it.
Sanjeev Rawal
Sanjeev Rawal, who was born in Tanzania and has been living in the city of Calgary in Canada for more than 20 years, is now contesting from the Liberal party from the Calgary Midnapore seat. He has a successful chain of his own shops and has also been active in many organizations associated with the Indian community.
Rawal says, “We are contesting elections on the problems of middle class people. People want better roads and sports facilities, get cheaper houses and employment opportunities for everyone.” He also said that the country needs immigrant people, but there should be balance in it. We are confident that this balance can be brought back through the right policies. Now we have the power to speak. “
Ashok Patel and Minesh Patel
Both Ashok Patel and Minesh Patel are of Gujarati origin and this time Edmonton is contesting as an independent candidate from Sherwood and Calgary Sky Skyth seat. Both of them are not politicians by profession. They first came to Canada as an immigrant, then they created their business, joined the community and now they are stepping into politics to improve the policies of the country.
At the same time, Minesh Patel of Anand city of Gujarat, who is a successful real estate agent, was made a candidate from Atobicok North seat on behalf of the Conservative Party some time ago. But early this week the party removed him.
