have a number of organisations of NRIs labouring hard in the USA to portray these parties in good light.
While those organisations that root for the BJP are enthused by the perceived 'anti-mxulim' stance of the party, those on the side of the Congress vouch for it owing to their cult worship of the Nehru family.
But both types have one thing in common - a fanatical adoration of what they believe is these parties' 'pro-captialist' economic outlook!
Both the BJP supporting and the Congress supporting US resident Indian organisations have this distant hope that someday they will all be able to take good advantage of the 'helpful' economic policies these parties are pushing down the throat of the Indian nation!
While entrepreneurs in these organisations dream of extending their empire to India and making profits several levels higher than what they make in America, others dream of returning to India and launching cosy ventures and walking away with the moolah by taking good advantage of the country's slave labour and corrupt and pliant regulatory mechanisms!

Well, the topic is on how one section of American Indian residents persuaded a few American politicians to visit Modi.
I was talking about how a lot of American Indians are intensely interested in politics back home. My hunch is that one of the reasons why Indian Americans continue to remain so interested in affairs back in India and take sides in those affairs even after being resident in America for generations is that they are ignored en masse by the native whites!
If this is out of context, then ignore it and move on.
There are sections of the Indian media quite clearly is in the payroll of Jihadists. Bollywood is well under Dawood mafia & run from Dubai and Karachi.
