A local leader of the Labor Party has been fined 40,000 pounds (47 lakh) for violating immigration laws in West London. The appeal filed against the action taken against the Indian student for illegally employing her as a nanny has been rejected.

According to a report in The Daily Telegraph, councilor and lawyer Hina Mir had hired 22-year-old Himanshi Gongle for 1,200 pounds (1.4 lakh) per month in cash, even though the Indian student had no legal right to work in Britain. According to a newspaper, Mir gave the student’s nickname as Riya and claimed that she was a social visitor who would often come to his house to play video games, watch TV and relax and do household chores.

Britain’s Home Department gave a statement

However, Britain’s Home Office told the court that the student appeared to be in distress when she stopped a police car to seek help in August last year. She was found to be in the country illegally after her visa expired in March 2023 and told authorities she felt as if she had been physically abused. After losing his appeal against an immigration decision in January, Mir will have to pay a fine of £40,000 as well as court costs of £3,620 (4 lakh 34 thousand).

Why is this issue important?

This raises big questions on the accountability of political figures in Britain. Illegal working is a criminal offense in the UK, which can carry heavy fines and penalties. This case further strengthens the increasing sensitivity over the cases of exploitation of Indian students.

British Prime Minister Kir Starmer made a major reshuffle in his cabinet on Friday (5 September). This step was taken after the resignation of Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayanar. Rayenar was accused that he made a tax mess in the purchase of an apartment and saved a stamp duty of about 40,000 pounds. The biggest appointment in this change is Shabana Mahmud, who has been made the new Home Secretary of Britain.

Who is Shabana Mahmud?

Shabana is of Pakistani origin and is an MP since 2010. She is considered to be the most senior Muslim female leader of Britain. She is the first Muslim woman to belong to Pakistan -occupied Kashmir, who has been given this responsibility.

According to the British government website, Shabana Mahmood was Lord Chancellor and Minister of Justice from 5 July 2024 to 5 September 2025. She was elected MP from Birmingham Ladwood seat in 2024. His family belongs to Pakistan -occupied Mirpur, Kashmir. Shabana was born in 1980 in Birmingham. As a child, he spent a few years in Saudi Arabia and then came back to UK and grew up.

His father was a civil engineer and later became the president of the local Labor Party. The mother supported the family in running a grocery shop. Shabana participated in the election campaign with her father in his teenage age. In terms of education, he completed his graduation from Oxford University in 2002 and ‘Ins of Court of Law’ in 2003.

Before joining politics, Shabana worked as a barrister and expertly expertly experts in professional indemnity law. In 2010, she was elected with Yasmin Qureshi and Rushnara Ali and joined Britain’s first Muslim women MPs.

After becoming Home Minister, he will now have important issues like immigration, border security, policing and national security. While his appointment is being described as a symbol of diversity and increasing strength of minorities in the UK, some critics are also raising questions about their original and political stance.

Debate erupted on social media

His appointment has launched a big debate on social media. Many people are calling it a sign of increasing political strength of minorities, while some are worried about their strict immigration policies. Some people are also criticizing his appointment for his original root and vocal Palestine pro -attitude. People in Pakistan are quite happy when Shabana Mahmood gets a big responsibility in the UK. Many users have expressed their happiness by writing posts on social media platform X.

Who got the responsibility of the Ministry of External Affairs?

Shabana will now deal with illegal migration, small boats crossing the border and sensitive issues like refugees. At the same time, External Affairs Minister David Lammy has been made Deputy Prime Minister and Yett Cooper has got the responsibility of the Ministry of External Affairs.

Starmer’s government is currently facing many challenges. Economic promises are not fulfilled, U-turn on social schemes and failure to stop illegal migrants. In these circumstances, there has been a big responsibility on Shabana Mahmud.

British journalist Tommy Robinson shared video

Sharing a video, British journalist Tommy Robinson said, “Shabana Mahmood, who took a parliamentary oath on the Quran, has now become the new Home Secretary of Prime Minister Starmer. Now he will be responsible for immigration and boundaries. In this video, she is saying that Islam is at the top for him. It is necessary for him to remove the labor party.”

Shabana Mahmood, Who Swore Her Oath of Parliamentary Office on the Koran, is to be starmer’s new home secretary.

She will now be in charge of immigration and the borders.
