I'll be the first one to post a new biography.


Name: Samuel Krishnamurthy
Province: New Ulster
Place of Birth: Alberton
Ethnic background: Tamil (Indian)
Religion: Church of Antillia
Party: The Social Liberals / Les libéraux sociaux

Background:
Born in Alberton on January 7, 1980 to middle-class Christian Tamil immigrant parents, Krishnamurthy bears little cultural or political connection to the vast majority of the Antillian Indian population. His parents sent him to school in the United Kingdom, though he returned to Antillia in his university years, studying philosophy and politics at the University of Alberton.

Even during his time at university, he became active in politics, being elected to the Alberton Council at the age of 22, shortly before graduating from university, representing the Social Liberals. He is widely considered a rising star within the Social Liberals.

One year after graduating, he married Christine Desmoureaux, a French national with whom he had studied at university, cementing his position as a non-traditional Indian in Antillian society. He speaks fluent English, Tamil and French.

As a politician in the small Social Liberals, which espouse economic centrism and social liberalism, he has drawn considerable fire for divergences from Indian traditionalism from nearly all other Indian members in Parliament. He is most well-known for diatribes against traditionalist culture, which has rankled Indian politicians while drawing mixed support and irritation from both liberal and conservative politicians.
