UNB, Dhaka :
British MP Tulip Siddiq has been named in the progress list of London’s 1,000 most influential people.
Tulip, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s granddaughter and Sheikh Rehana’s daughter, expressed her happiness over the selection through her official Facebook page and Twitter. “I was honoured to find out last night that the London Evening
 Standard have included me in their list of 1000 most influential people in London. I must admit that the phrase “no shrinking violet” never gets old!” her Facebook post reads.
She is Labour’s Member of Parliament from her home seat of Hampstead and Kilburn.
The newspaper – Evening Standard published its Progress list of London’s 1,000 most influential people recently. London Mayor Sadiq Khan heads the list, followed by British Prime Minister Theresa May, but it is an astonishingly diverse group: the top 25 include an athlete, a bishop, a Facebook executive and an astronaut – Tim Peake. What the 1,000 individuals in the list represent is the changing face of London: diverse, adaptable, socially inclusive – and progressive, accordingly to the newspaper.
