Nationwide Support Bolsters Delegate Harry Bhandari’s Congressional Campaign
In a significant show of solidarity, community leaders and professionals of Nepali root from across the United States convened in a nationwide Zoom meeting to rally behind Delegate Harry Bhandari’s bid for Congress. This historic campaign marks a pivotal moment as Delegate Bhandari is the first Nepali American state legislator to make such a run, highlighting the growing diversity and strength of our political landscape.
The meeting was marked by the unanimous selection of Bashu Phulara, a respected attorney, as the campaign chairman. "Being chosen to lead Delegate Bhandari’s campaign is a profound honor," stated Phulara. "Bhandari embodies the ideals and dreams of our community. His vision for a more inclusive and representative Congress is a mission I am fully committed to. Together, we will navigate this campaign towards historic success."
This gathering also led to the formation of a robust volunteer standing committee for fundraising efforts, with leaders from two dozen states pledging their support. This nationwide backing is a testament to Delegate Bhandari's impactful work and the collective desire for change that resonates with so many.
Delegate Bhandari’s campaign is not merely a political endeavor; it is a movement toward ensuring that the American political arena reflects its diverse populace. With a proven track record of legislative success and an unwavering commitment to democracy and public service, Delegate Bhandari is prepared to advocate for the needs and values of all Americans in Congress.
Reflecting on the groundswell of support, Delegate Bhandari remarked, “This campaign is a beacon of our shared aspirations for a government that mirrors the diversity of its people. I am immensely grateful for the nationwide support and more motivated than ever to ensure that our collective voice is heard in the corridors of power. Let’s make history together.”

New York City Breaks Ground by Declaring Diwali a School Holiday, Celebrating Cultural Diversity-Diwali
New York City has made history today by declaring Diwali a school holiday, a significant move toward celebrating cultural diversity. The bill announcement, officially signed by Governor Kathy Hochul and Assemblywoman Jennifer Raj Kumar, took place at the Flushing Hindu Temple Hall of New York. The program, in collaboration with various officials and community leaders, featured musical instruments, cultural Indian folk dance performances, and the ceremonial lighting of the lamp. Following the passage of the Holiday Resolution bill during the ceremony, the event concluded with the reception of South Indian Prasad.
This historic decision is a remarkable achievement for the Indian, Nepali, Bangladeshi, and American communities within our school system. Congratulations to all individuals who celebrate Diwali as part of their culture in New York City schools. Such recognition and celebration are intriguing, and I extend heartfelt wishes to the entire Nepali, Indian, Bangladeshi, and American communities on the occasion of Diwali. For the first time, a New York State school bids farewell to the Diwali festival, acknowledging its cultural enrichment and diversity.
Additionally, this is highly inspiring and reflects the prosperity and cultural growth not only in our country but also on the international stage. It enhances our pride as our people come together globally, and various cultural festivals contribute positively to this shared experience by recognizing its cultural enrichment and diversity.
Last but not the least , the participation of New York State Governor Kathy Hochul in the Diwali program organized in a Hindu temple is particularly motivational. It demonstrates that public figures actively plan to engage in prosperity events. This is a reassuring proof that different cultural festivals are celebrated in public spaces during prosperity occasions.
It shows that when there is an opportunity for prosperity events and participation in various prosperity events, plans are made to actively engage in them. This is an encouraging indication that different cultural festivals are celebrated in public spaces during prosperity occasions.
This affirms that in prosperity events, participation in various cultural festivals or events related to prosperity is planned actively.
