Andy Burnham Becomes UK Prime Minister Amidst Economic and International Challenges

Kathmandu. Andy Burnham is entering '10 Downing Street' as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom on Monday. Amidst enthusiasm, Burnham, who is about to take over the prime ministership, faces challenges ranging from economic reform to public service management and balancing international relations.

Burnham, who returned to Parliament through a special election last month, had spent most of his time leading the Greater Manchester region of North-West England. Now he will have to run the government of a country with a population of about 70 million.
