Indian-origin Keith Vaz, who was once again elected from the Leicester East constituency,
Friday said that he was looking forward to debate issues in the House of Commons with his sister Valerie, who was also elected from the Walsall South constituency.
This is the first time a brother-sister duo has been elected to the House of Commons.
Valerie Vaz was also elected on a Labour ticket.
Vaz told PTI: "It is truly an honour to have been re-elected to represent the people of Leicester East. I will continue to do my very best to repay the confidence and trust that people have placed in me again. I will continue to put the needs of Leicester first and fight for what Leicester rightly deserves."
He added: "I am delighted that Valerie has been elected, she will make an excellent MP and I look forward to debating in the Commons together."
Vaz was re-elected from Leicester East for the sixth time, gaining a bigger vote than ever before. Vaz won 53.76 per cent of the vote totalling 25,804 votes, up by more than
1,000 on his total for the 2005 General Election.
