Washington DC (USA), June 23 (ANI): Addressing the US Congress, Prime Minister Modi highlighted the presence of Indian Americans elected in the United States Congress or at top leadership positions. “There are millions here, who have roots in India. Some of them sit proudly in this chamber and one of them is behind me (US Vice-President Kamala Harris). I have been told that the ‘samosa caucus’ is now the flavour of the House. I hope it grows and brings the full diversity of Indian cuisine here,” said Prime Minister Modi at the joint session. ‘Samosa Caucus’, named after the popular snack, refers to a group of elected officials in the US Congress who have South Asian ancestry, particularly Indian.
