"An Obama administration staffer Sonal Shah as well as Amit Jani, who worked on the Biden campaign team have so far been excluded, allegedly due their RSS/BJP links which has been brought into the limelight by over a dozen Indian-American organisations." https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/diaspora/biden-keeps-out-democrats-with-rss-links-201707
"The Democrats may have been more circumspect over accommodating pro-BJP/RSS elements in the government following renewed activism by organisations opposed to the Hindutva project and also after witnessing the fate of such candidates, added the sources."
"Congressional candidate Sri Preston Kulkarni lost the elections after strident opposition from Indian-American organisations and former US Congressperson Tulsi Gabbard also lost political ground because of this reason."
"In order to ensure that the Biden administration does not backtrack on excluding those with RSS/BJP links, 19 Indian-American organisations have written to Biden pointing out that many South Asian-Americans individuals with ties to far-right Hindu organisations in India are...
... affiliated with the Democratic Party."
For those asking about the sources mentioned in the above-linked article, I believe it is a result of my reportage a few days ago about the 19 diaspora orgs requesting Biden vet appointees for RSS-BJP ties, as well as failure of Kulkarnia & Gabbard. https://pieterjfriedrich.medium.com/indian-americans-to-biden-vet-appointees-for-rss-bjp-links-f0c61857e797
