I'm curious to hear Hindu-American perspectives on the upcoming November election. I think many of us have been dismayed and angered by the callous attitude demonstrated by the #Democrats on #Kashmir, CAA, Modi, and Hindus in general. It seems as if they take our votes for granted and expect us to fall in line as brown immigrants and the descendants of brown immigrants. What are your thoughts?

Curious words from Ajay Jain Bhutoria, who is a member of the National Finance Committee for Biden (see https://www.india.com/news/world/heres-what-democratic-presidential-nominee-joe-biden-thinks-on-kashmir-nrc-and-caa-4067977/)
“There are groups within various elected officials groups in US pushing language and agenda’s highlighting misinformation and damaging facts on how India handled its own internal matter on Kashmir, Ladakh or immigration reforms related to NRC.”
India too has a right to define its own Immigration policy to support its population and economy, he said.
“I grew up in Assam, Guwahati and I have seen the influx of people across the border and taking away important jobs, resources from local people in northeastern states,” he said.
“The immigration reforms and NRC are welcome steps. Execution of these reforms and strategies need to be improved and India needs to do better in change management and rolling out of reforms,” Bhutoria said.
