New Delhi: The US presidential election is on Tuesday next week and now the ruling Democratic Party and the opposition Republican Party are trying to woo Indian-origin voters. A few days ago, President Joe Biden tried to make inroads among Indian-origin voters through his Diwali party, while on Diwali, Republican Party candidate and former President Donald Trump in his message not only talked about strengthening America's relations with India, but also accused the Biden administration of ignoring the interests of Hindus.

Trump gave important indications

Along with this, by raising the issue of attacks on Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh, he also indicated that if he returns to power, he can also change the current US policy in this regard. By the way, according to the indications coming from America right now, the 19 lakh Indian-origin voters living there are divided regarding their choice.

Mention of attack on Hindus in Bangladesh

Trump has started his Diwali message with the attacks on minorities in Bangladesh. He has written that I strongly condemn the brutal attacks and looting of Hindus, Christians and other minorities in Bangladesh, which is currently in great chaos. This will never happen if I am in power. Kamala and Biden have ignored Hindus in America and the world. Their policies from Ukraine to Israel and our southern borders have been troublesome, but we will make America strong once again and establish peace through strength. We will save Hindu Americans from the anti-religious agenda of the radical leftists. We will fight for their freedom, my administration will further strengthen our tremendous partnership with India and my dear friend Narendra Modi.

Message issued on Diwali

This message of Trump has been released on the occasion of Diwali, at the end of which he has wished everyone a Happy Diwali and called it the festival of lights which is celebrated as the victory of truth over untruth, but before this message, he has strongly criticized the policies of his rival Kamala Harris. Especially those policies of hers which are harming small businesses.

It is said that this was done keeping the Indian voters in mind, because a large number of NRIs are setting up departmental stores etc. in America. It is also worth mentioning that Trump has been calling PM Modi his friend in public speeches several times in the last few weeks.

Before PM Modi's visit to the US in September 2024, Trump had announced in an election rally that Modi was going to meet him. However, this meeting could not take place. According to the information coming from America, Kamala Harris still has more support among voters of Indian origin. In a recent survey, 69 percent of Indian voters have said that they will vote in favor of Harris. However, there are only a few big cities like Philadelphia where the sum of Indian voters' votes can play a role in victory or defeat. Indian voters are traditionally considered to be supporters of the Democratic Party.
