New York: In a vibrant celebration of culture and community, over 200 South Asians gathered this past weekend for a Navratri Garba and Dandia event, showcasing not only their rich traditions but also their passionate support for Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign. 

Ajay Bhutoria, a prominent community leader, remarked, “It was inspiring to see so many people come together, proudly showing their support for Kamala Harris for President. With less than 30 days until the election, it's crucial we all take action. Each of us must ‘Do Something’ to help elect Kamala Harris as our next President!” 

The South Asian community stands as a significant margin of victory in this pivotal election, and their enthusiasm for Harris is palpable. Bhutoria emphasized, “This is the most important election of our lifetime! Let's ensure our voices are heard. We encourage everyone to help register voters, reach out to friends and family in battleground states, and consider volunteering for phone banking or voter turnout efforts for Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz.” 

He added, “I will be knocking doors in Philadelphia this weekend. Join me to make a difference!” 

As the countdown to Election Day continues, the South Asian community is mobilizing, determined to make their voices count. “I WILL VOTE FOR KAMALA! Will you vote for Kamala Harris?” Bhutoria urged attendees, reinforcing the need for collective action. 

Together, this vibrant community can make a substantial impact in the upcoming election and be the margin of victory in the battleground states to help elect the first Indian American, Black American, woman president of the United States.
