President-elect Donald Trump’s nomination of Harmeet K. Dhillon as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights has sparked controversy, particularly in New Delhi. Dhillon, a prominent Republican of Indian descent, has faced criticism for past social media posts allegedly supporting pro-Khalistani views, including unverified claims of India operating “death squads” targeting Sikh diaspora critics. Her remarks sharply contrast Trump’s efforts to strengthen ties with India and court Indian-American voters. While Trump has elevated several Indian-Americans to prominent roles, Dhillon’s nomination may alienate sections of the Indian-American community, whose support for Trump grew modestly in the 2024 election, particularly among men.
Is Trump’s latest pick pro-Khalistan?
