US Presidential Election: Less than two months are left for the US presidential election in November. In such a situation, the election campaign is going on in full swing in America. Meanwhile, Hindus living in America have now said which of the two main parties they are supporting in this election. An organization called Hindus for America First has announced that it will support Republican candidate Donald Trump in the election. Not only this, the group will start a campaign against Democratic candidate Vice President Kamala Harris in the states of Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina.
Announcing his decision on Thursday, Utsav Sanduja, president and founder of Hindus for America First, claimed that India-US relations could suffer if Harris wins the election. He said, the concern is that if Kamala becomes the US President, she may bring in some liberals who will influence Asian-American voters. In particular, the Biden-Harris administration has not secured the border. He said Harris is second in command to President Joe Biden and has done nothing to stop illegal immigrants from entering the US. All these illegal immigrants have led to a record rise in crime and drug trafficking here, and this is affecting minority communities, especially many Asian-American business owners.
Trump is a big supporter of India: Sanduja
On the other hand, Sanduja praised Trump's efforts to make the immigration system more merit-based. He also praised the former president's efforts to promote defense and technology cooperation with India. He said Trump is a big supporter of India. He said he could have built a good relationship with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and collaborated on several defense projects that would have enabled India to compete with China.
Trump has not interfered in the country's internal affairs
Sanduja said Harris has made several derogatory comments about the Indian government and people, while Trump has not interfered in the country's internal affairs. He claimed that Kamala Harris will destabilise India-US relations. He said Hindus For America First is campaigning against Harris among Hindus in states like Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona and Nevada.
I am worried about the attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh
Sanduja said that the global Hindu community is concerned about the attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh. We will urge all the concerned political bodies to raise this issue. I give a lot of credit to Trump. Under his leadership, the State Department acknowledged the persecution of Hindus in various parts of the Indian subcontinent like Afghanistan, Pakistan. President Trump was the only person who acknowledged the Hindu genocide.
