MR Rangaswamy, Founder-President of ‘Indiaspora’ said, “On behalf of Indiaspora and the Indian-American community, I would like to congratulate the 47th President of America, Donald Trump. I hope that US-India relations will deepen in the new political environment in America.
“Top government officials from both parties have established strong relationships during President Trump’s first term in office, and there is strong bipartisan support in the United States to advance this important bilateral relationship,” Rangaswami said.
In his second term, Trump has appointed many Indian-Americans in areas like civil rights, national security and technology. Prominent among them are Harmeet Kaur Dhillon, Vivek Ramaswamy, Kash Patel, Jai Bhattacharya and Sriram Krishnan.
Sanjeev Joshipura, Executive Director of Indiaspora, said, “Indiaspora’s focus over the past few years has been on two key areas – increasing the civic and political participation of Indian diaspora and strengthening US-India relations.”
He said, “It is heartening to see that every American administration, regardless of their political affiliation, has appointed Indian-Americans to senior positions in the government and the incoming Trump administration has also continued this trend.” ‘
