Subject: Urgent Correction Needed: Misreporting of Candidate’s Country of Origin
Dear Editor, ThePrint,
I am writing to call attention to a significant factual error in your recent article about the Sugar Land, Texas, District 2 Council election.
You reported that Nasir Hussain, the opponent of winning candidate Sanjay Singhal, is an Indian American. This is incorrect. Mr. Hussain is originally from Pakistan. Mr. Singhal is originally from India and an alumnus of IIT Delhi.
Such inaccuracies, particularly regarding the identity and background of public figures, are not trivial. In today’s climate, where representation and identity are sensitive and consequential issues, it is essential that reporting on election outcomes be precise and fully accurate.
I strongly urge ThePrint to issue a clear and visible correction to rectify this misstatement and to ensure greater diligence in future reporting.
