Reuters: There is an atmosphere of worship and celebration in Tulasendrapuram village, the maternal home of US Vice President Kamala Harris. In this village, located about 13 thousand kilometers from Washington, worship is being done for Kamala Harris' victory in the presidential election.

Who is Kamala Harris?

Kamala's maternal grandfather PV Gopalan was born in this village of Tiruvarur district of Tamil Nadu. From here he went out for studies and became a high ranking officer in the Indian government.

Gopalan's daughter Shyamala Gopalan went to America for studies and there she got married to Donald J. Harris of Jamaican origin. After this, Kamala was born in Oakland, California.

Prayers for Kamala Harris

A prayer meeting has been organised in the village temple on Tuesday morning for Kamala's victory. G Manikandan, who has a shop near the temple, says that if Kamala wins the election, a grand celebration will be held in the village which may last for several days.

How the name of the village came into discussion

Outside this temple, a big banner has been put up, calling Kamala Harris the daughter of this land. In the list of donors of this temple, Kamala Harris's name is recorded along with the name of her maternal grandfather. The name of this village came into the news when Kamala Harris became the Vice President of America. Then the joy was celebrated here by bursting fireworks.
Tough competition between Trump and Harris

Let us tell you that voting will begin on November 5 to elect a new President in America and by late night it will probably be decided who will be the next President. Although there are a total of eight candidates in the US Presidential election, but the main contest is between Indian-origin Vice President and Democratic Party candidate Kamala Devi Harris and Republican Party candidate former President Donald Trump.

When will the US election results come?

She celebrated her swearing-in as US vice president by bursting firecrackers and distributing food before she contested the 2020 Democratic presidential primary. Harris and her Republican rival Donald Trump have struggled to get supporters to polling stations in a historically close race, meaning it could take days before a winner is revealed.
