Congressman Thanedar Denounces Anti-India Sentiment in Texas

US Congressman Shri Thanedar condemned anti-India rhetoric in Frisco, a city in Texas, asserting that immigrants have made the US stronger. 

According to reports, speakers at a public hearing made references to the "Indian takeover" of Frisco and the targeting of the Indian-American community during debates on immigration and H-1B visas. "This is a disgusting act of hate. Racism has no place in our country," Thanedar, a Congressman from Michigan, said.

Recently, a video of a man tearing the Indian flag in Frisco also went viral on social media. "I came



to America in search of the American dream.

 I was lucky enough to get an education, build businesses, create thousands of good jobs, and now serve my community in Congress," Thanedar said in response to the anti-India rhetoric in Frisco and other parts of Texas.

 He said immigrants make the country stronger, with Indian Americans, and the incredible talent they bring to every field, have a special place in the American story," he said. "I am proud to be an Indian American, and I will always stand against hate and racism in every form," Thanedar said.
