In a significant move, a group of prominent Indian-Americans has initiated a grassroots campaign to bolster support for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris in crucial battleground states.

Vice President Harris, 59, with her mixed heritage—an Indian mother from Chennai and a Jamaican father—faces former president Donald Trump, 78, in the upcoming elections.

The 'Indian Americans for Harris' campaign aims to make history by ensuring Harris, the first individual of Indian descent, ascends to America's highest office.
