In what community leaders are calling a first-of-its-kind political move, the American Hindu Coalition (AHC), a right-leaning Hindu advocacy organisation, has endorsed Junaid Khan, a Pakistani American cybersecurity expert running for the Virginia House of Delegates in District 27.
The AHC, which has built its platform around “America First” economic policies, religious liberty protections, parental control in education, small-business growth, strong national defense, border security, and closer U.S.-India ties, has traditionally supported Indian American candidates. But its backing of Khan marks an unprecedented step across South Asia’s longstanding divides.
