They are not leaving any stone unturned in the campaign activities. The elections are significant to India as the result would impact the ties between the two nations.
India and the United States have had good ties for a long time. Under the tenure of George W. Bush, the ties started flourishing and the next Presidents only took forward the ties. We have seen how India helped the US with the Covid vaccines supply. Despite having the image of a controversial leader Donald Trump did not spoil the ties.
Talking about the current election episode Kamala Harris, an Indian-origin leader is said to be having an edge. Due to various reasons Kamala Harris is getting support from various corners. A few polls said that the Indian-American community is with Kamala Harris.
The Indian-American community can be a deciding factor in the elections in the clutch states and this would be an advantage for the Vice President. However there are a few fears on the ties between the countries if Kamala Harris wins.
The Democratic Party has the image of pro-Left and a few incidents add fuel to this. During the campaign before the 2020 polls, Joe Biden actively used the Inshallah word and many say that this helped him in getting support from a few communities.
On the other hand, Kamala Harris picked Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate and he has the image of pro-left. Of late, we are hearing the rise of the Hinduphobia trend and some unwanted activities. There are a few fears about the trend increasing and the ties getting impacted if Kamala Harris wins. Let us wait and see.
