If Kamala Harris Wins, Is it Good or Bad for Indians?
While previous US administrations have fostered connections with india, regardless of party, Kamala harris might buck this bipartisan pattern. Her political decisions, such as appointing Minnesota governor Tim Walz as her running mate during a contentious race against pennsylvania governor josh Shapiro, suggest that she may have a tendency toward the more radical left side of the Democratic Party.
These forces might magnify little problems into significant diplomatic crises, a la Bill Clinton's sanctions policy. They are frequently eager to embrace unsubstantiated charges against India. Though Harris's candidacy for president could represent advancement for indian Americans, it runs the danger of upending the solid US-India alliance developed over the previous 20 years, creating further misunderstandings and tensions.
