From Streets Of India To Los Angeles Mayor!

As we have been extensively reporting for the last few months, the precipitation of the Indian population in the United States has been going consistently for a while now. This is also reflecting in the kind of political success that Indian population had been tasting there.

Now we have the case of an Indian origin woman who has scripted history in the Los Angeles mayoral election today.

Born in Thrissur, Kerala, Nithya Raman has defeated incumbent Karen Bass to become Los Angeles’ first Indian-American and the first South Asian woman to lead the city.

Nithya is an academically gifted woman and she’s also a Harvard and MIT graduate. She had earlier worked with NGOs in Delhi, and Chennai as she’s a strong social activist by nature.

In her victory address, she vowed to make housing affordable, improve public safety and build a government that works for ordinary people.

Born in Kerala, India, she came to America, studied at Harvard and MIT, and dedicated her career to fighting homelessness, housing insecurity, and inequality.

Now she has been presented with the golden opportunity of serving as the mayor of Los Angeles, which happens to be one of the wealthiest city is not just in the United States but also across the globe.
