The article is misleading....
Have a look at the title and the small print i..e the facts.
Pakistanis make up the largest BME group in 36 constituencies where the overall BME population is over 20% of the total population. Indians are second with the largest BME group in 34 such seats and Bangladeshi's in four. That means South Asian groups are the dominant BME communities in 74 seats.
I would say that the article should have headlined with "South Asians are the kingmakers".
Anyway it's good to see the South Asian community wielding such political clout.
