Mamdani promised to demolish the 'urban oasis' Elizabeth Street Garden and build affordable housing. Three months in, he can't — and the clamour hasn't stopped.
DHS is offering free flights and $2,600 bonus to undocumented migrants from India, China and Colombia amid drop in illegal Indian immigrants and rising MAGA‑driven anti‑Indian rhetoric
The Israel-Palestine question appeared to be the one area where he apparently refused to soften his views. And that refusal is now colliding with the realities of governing.
The NYC mayor called the operation a violation of international law, said he contacted Trump to register his opposition, but declined to describe the president’s response.
Among the orders revoked were two controversial items, including one that barred some officials from engaging in procurement practices ‘that discriminate’ against Israel.
A letter to the Indian envoy to the US called the probe into the charges against Khalid under UAPA 'dubious'. Mamdani had shared a note with Khalid’s parents during their visit to the US last month.
Advice comes at a time when India accounts for a 5th of global generic drug supply & 40% of generics used in US. However, this strength in finished formulations relies on imported ingredients.
It’s easy to understand why the government can’t speak the hard truth. When this war ends, as all wars do, India’s interests will lie with both the winner and the loser.
A j!h@d sympathiser who wears on his sleeve a religious identity that strove for centuries to erase every other will never be acceptable as an “authentic” representation of Bharata, or India, modern or premodern. End of story.
Dear Vir Sanghvi, Just because Zohran is a proud Muslim, who has not forgotten his culture of Indian roots, it doesn’t make him an “authentic Indian”. He is the product of the open western culture with liberal leftist mindset. There may be many Indians like him in our country, but Zohran is not an “”authentic Indian”. Zohran Mamdani would be one of millions had he been working in Uganda, or South Africa or India or in any Muslim country. He reaped the benefits of the open culture USA democrats provided. It is to be noted that he told that there are no Muslims in Gujrat, that Kashmir is an occupied territory, he supports Hamas of the Palestine.
Excellent article. As an atheist PIO, I detest the “alliance” between the right wings of the two nations, and I am more than a little gleeful that the desis here who seemed so enthralled with Trump have met their comeuppance. Mamdani represents America’s present and definitely its future as a multi-racial, multi-ethnic society. Today, the forces opposing this are making a lot of noise and may even seem ascendant, but there is absolutely no way to unmelt the melting pot that is America.
What a bizzare assertion. How is someone like Zohran Mamdani “an authentic representation of modern India”? What about someone like Rishi Sunak? Mr. Sunak also did not convert to Christianity and nor does he downplay his Indian roots. In fact, Mr. Sunak’s wife is an Indian citizen, which, in my mind, gives him a stronger association with India than Mr. Mamdani, whose wife is of Syrian origin. In fact, the part that Mr. Sanghvi cleverly downplays, i.e., the policies and politics of Mr. Mamdani, is the one that we should be paying attention to the most. From what I have seen so far, Mr. Mamdani is just an Islamist in a suit. How he is representative of modern India in beyond me.
I am pretty certain at this point that any article by Vir Sangvi in Print is a massive waste of space. He has no insight to offer on anything of importance in our current affairs and I believe the only reason periodically an article by him only appears to massage his ego
Why would he convert? He is a Muslim, they don’t convert, they would rather convert others!
And no, he isn’t going to do anything to advance Indian interests – caring about this country won’t come naturally to him given his Communist ideology and religion. This combo is lethal and you hear him pride himself on his religion, never about India.
NY is welcome to keep him. He doesn’t represent modern Indians or any Indians for that matter.

There was Rishi Sunak, before you went gaga over Mamdani. Vivek Ramaswamy didn’t convert either. Honestly, leftist bootlickers ar it again.
