Kamala Harris' uncle Gopalan Balachandran says her nomination is a much bigger cause for celebration than a reference to her aunts ('chithis') and uncles during the speech.
Kamala Harris introduced the US to its first Black and Indian-American woman to be nominated for vice presidency, saying she was proud of both heritage.
US Presidential nominee Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris released their campaign document, outlining the main contours of their policy towards India.
Donald Trump had raised the matter twice last week in news conferences over an op-ed, which suggested that Harris' eligibility for national office was under question.
Indian society largely believes identity is determined by one’s birth & family than by individual choices and actions. For some, Harris is Indian while Sonia Gandhi an Italian.
In her address organised by Indians for Biden National Council, Harris greeted the Indian Americans on Independence Day and spoke about the deep influence of Indian heritage on her.
In her first interview as Joe Biden's running mate, Harris said he had the audacity to pick a Black woman and that it would encourage more such women to come out & vote.

Don’t call him to your place the first time. He could be a stalker who now has your address. Or worse. He overstays his welcome, clogs your toilet, picks his nails, and snores.
Germany’s erstwhile Christian Democratic Union govt, led by Angela Merkel, prevented sale of small arms to police forces in states they perceived had ‘bad human rights record’.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
