Navinchandra Ramgoolam (born July 13 1947) is the current Prime Minister of the Republic of Mauritius. He first held this office from 1995 to 2000, and was reappointed on 5 July 2005, after his Alliance Sociale (a coalition including his own Labour Party, the Mauritian Party of Xavier-Luc Duval, and several smaller groups) defeated the MMM-MSM coalition of the then-Prime Minister Paul Bérenger in the general elections held on 3 July.
Biography
He is the son of Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam, the 'father' of the nation. He trained as a doctor in Dublin, Ireland and achieved full registration with the General Medical Council of the United Kingdom in 1977. He later converted into Law by achieving a Master of Laws qualification before starting a political career, but he never practised as a lawyer either.
