Indian-origin politician Nila Vikhe Patil has been elected to Sweden's Parliament from the Stockholm City constituency. The 41-year-old Green Party member is the daughter of Maharashtra educationist Ashok Vikhe Patil and the niece of state minister Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil. Born in Sweden, she spent her early childhood in Ahmednagar. Sweden's left-leaning opposition won a narrow majority in the September 13 election, taking 176 of the 349 seats. Nila said she wants to be a voice for those who cannot vote and to work for a liveable planet and a good future for every child. (PC: India Today)
