Sarah Teather MP at Indian Independence Day

Sarah Teather's constituents invited her to join their Indian Independence Day celebrations

Liberal Democrat MP for Brent East Sarah Teather joined the Brent Indian Association to mark Indian Independence Day.

India's Independence Day is celebrated every year on August 15 to commemorate Indian independence from British rule in 1947. The day is a national holiday in India and is celebrated all over the country through flag-hoisting ceremonies and the distribution of sweets.

The Brent Indian Association invited Brent's Liberal Democrat MP Sarah Teather to a local flag-hoisting ceremony.

Liberal Democrat MP for Brent East Sarah Teather said:

"One of the best things about Brent is that we have lots of people from different cultures living side by side. The Indian community in Brent has made a huge contribution to our borough, and I was delighted to be invited to join my constituents in marking this important anniversary."

    If you are a resident of the Brent Central constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
