Hindu American groups praise Trump for promising to protect Hindus worldwide, criticizing Kamala Harris for ignoring the issue.
Hindu American groups have applauded Republican presidential candidate and former president Donald Trump for promising to protect the human rights of Hindus across the world, including the U.S. and Bangladesh and protect them from the "anti-religion agenda of the radical left."
In his Diwali greetings on Thursday (October 31, 2024), Mr. Trump strongly "condemned the barbaric violence against Hindus, Christians, and other minorities in Bangladesh", which he said remains in a “total state of chaos.”
“It would have never happened on my watch. Kamala and Joe have ignored Hindus across the world and in America. They have been a disaster from Israel to Ukraine to our own Southern Border, but we will make America strong again and bring back peace through strength,” he said.
“We will also protect Hindu Americans against the anti-religion agenda of the radical left. We will fight for your freedom. Under my administration, we will also strengthen our great partnership with India and my good friend, Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi,” Mr. Trump had said.
Utsav Sanduja, founder and chairman of Hindus for America First, told PTI in an interview that they are very grateful to President Trump.
"I'm very grateful to President Trump, eternally grateful and eternally appreciative. It sucks that Kamala Harris hasn't said anything about this issue. I think that there's going to be a big change in this election coming from this,” Mr. Sanduja said.
