Shashi Tharoor urges Indian Diaspora in USA to “speak up, press political reps to stand for India”
Sep 24, 2025
New Delhi, Sept 23, 2025 (ANI): Congress MP Dr Shashi Tharoor said, "... I do want to stress that one of the points we raised was why the Indian-American diaspora has been so silent about all of this. One of the congresswomen said that not one phone call has come to her office from any Indian-American voter asking for her to support a change of policy, and this is something that is surprising and that I think we all need to reach out to the Indian-American population saying, if you care about the relationship with your motherland, then you also have to fight for it, speak for it and make more of an effort to press your political representatives to stand up for India. But the ones who came here are already friends of India, well disposed towards India and they have spoken very warmly and positively of the relationship..."
