Sending Diwali greetings, Former US President and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump stated that he aims to strengthen the “great partnership” between the United States and India, mentioning his “good friend” Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In a post on X, Trump also extended his greetings on Diwali. “… Happy Diwali to All. I hope the Festival of Lights leads to the Victory of Good over Evil!,” he posted.
In the same post, the former President condemned the violence against Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh. “I strongly condemn the barbaric violence against Hindus, Christians, and other minorities who are getting attacked and looted by mobs in Bangladesh, which remains in a total state of chaos,” he said, adding that it would have “never happened” on his watch.

It would have never happened on my watch. Kamala and Joe have ignored Hindus across the…

This is for the first time that Trump has spoken on the issue of Bangladesh. Hundreds of Hindus were killed in July-August in Bangladesh when a students’ agitation turned into massive protests leading to then prime minister Sheikh Hasina to flee the country on August 5.
He criticised Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden for not addressing the issues faced by Hindus both in the US and around the world. Trump pledged to make “America Strong Again” and restore peace through strength. “We will also protect Hindu Americans against the anti-religion agenda of the radical left. We will fight for your freedom. Under my administration, we will also strengthen our great partnership with India and my good friend, Prime Minister Modi,” he said.
The former President further said that Harris will “destroy your small businesses with more regulations and higher taxes”.
“By contrast, I cut taxes, cut regulations, unleashed American energy, and built the greatest economy in history. We will do it again, bigger and better than ever before — and we will Make America Great Again,” he added.
