This Hindu Girl -She Won The Seat
Americans Fete First Hindu in Congress as Tulsi Gabbard Prevails in Hawaii
Washington, D.C. (November 7, 2012) - The Hindu American Foundation (HAF) celebrated a historic election day as Tulsi Gabbard overwhelmingly took the 2nd Congressional District seat in Hawaii. A Democrat, Gabbard will enter the U.S. House of Representatives as the first Hindu-American legislator nearly a half-century after Dalip Singh Saund, a Sikh, served in the same body.
Another, Ami Bera who grew up Hindu & now identifies as a Unitarian Universalist, holds the advantage in a tight race in a Sacramento area congressional district. In a year where a record number of Hindu Americans ran prominent campaigns, Manan Trivedi of Pennsylvania & Upendra Chivukula of New Jersey came up short.
Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), a practicing Hindu of the Vaishnava tradition, campaigned on her experience as a former Honolulu City Councilwoman and Iraq war veteran. Her landslide win was expected as Democratic party's candidate following a primary victory in the Hawaii’s 2nd district in July. She replaces Mazie Hirono, a Buddhist, who subsequently won Hawaii's vacant Senate seat.
"Gabbard is an incredibly inspiring leader whose political rise is a testament to the greatest ideals of American pluralism," said Aseem Shukla, co-founder & Board member of HAF. "That Gabbard won while proudly espousing her Hinduism & voicing a willingness to be a strong voice for Hindu Americans brings over two million Americans into the political landscape for the first time. Her cultural understanding of Hawaii's unique & diverse population, will serve her district's interests well. Bolstering the economy, safeguarding the environment, & supporting Hawaii's heritage of pluralism, we understand, will be top priorities."
Gabbard, of Samoan-American origin, told the Religion News Service that among many issues, she’ll also focus on environmental issues, veteran affairs, & developing relations with India, Hinduism's spiritual homeland. "How can we have a close relationship if decision-makers in Washington know very little, if anything, about the religious beliefs, values, & practices of India's 800 million Hindus?" asked Gabbard.
She also stated her desire to become the first to take her oath of office in January 2013 on the Bhagavad Gita, the Hindu holy scripture that inspires a billion people globally.

दीपावली महोत्सव 13 नवम्बर 2012 दिन मंगवार को है , कार्तिक महीने के कृष्ण पक्ष की अमावस्या को जब सूर्य और चंद्र दोनों तुला राशि में होते हैं, तब दीवाली का त्योहार मनाया जाता है।
यह पर्व असत्य पर सत्य की और अंधकार पर प्रकाश की विजय का प्रतीक है।For Sikhs, Diwali is particularly important because it celebrates the release from prison of the sixth guru, Guru Hargobind, and 52 other princes with him, in 1619.
