Respected Mr. Joseph Biden, the Honourable President of the USA,

Our Heartiest Greetings to you on your spectacular victory, the victory over the evils, devils and the fascist faces that have brought disrepute to the wonderful democratic values cherished and nourished in the USA over centuries. Our Greetings are also to the people of the USA who have chosen to see a ray of hope in your leadership. Our sincere appreciation and thanks for your immediate Proclamation repealing Trump’s religion-based and racist discriminatory ban orders. The country with its founding father being George Washington who was emphatic in declining the third tenure and has become a role model for the country as well as the whole world, was unfortunate to have Mr. Donald Trump as the President. Of course, no autocracy and dictatorship can ever continue as the history has already taught us and left its imprint.

India is the largest democracy in the world while the USA is considered as the oldest democracy. But when we go through the pages of history of India, we find India was one of the oldest democracies in the world during the earliest civilization and the Buddhist era of our country. The course of history of our country has unfortunately changed over the centuries due to the treacherous acts of the satanic and fascist forces and we have officially become democracy once again on attaining Independence on the 15th day of August, 1947.

Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, the Father of Indian Constitution, one of the topmost Makers of the Modern India and the world’s renowned multi-faceted personality, who has toiled and sacrificed his entire life for uplifting all the Indians and more particularly the oppressed, suppressed and repressed Scheduled Castes and Tribes of India – still undergoing harrowing experiences and longing for liberation from the brutal clutches of casteism, the Backward Classes and Minorities, the suppressed women of India who form around 49% of the total population and the exploited laborers, has prophetically said, “Political democracy cannot last unless there lies at the base of it social democracy.” We do hope social democracy will flourish under your Presidency and there will be no witch-hunting with the prevalence of Rule of Law over lawlessness but at the same time the perpetrators of the hate crimes should not go unpunished.

As soon as you saw the sign of victory, you have humbly pleaded to your cadre and the people to maintain the peace and declared that you would be the President of the whole USA and not exclusively for those who have voted for you and your Democratic candidates. Indeed, you are a great role model to be emulated! Here, you stand atop as a great humanist. Your thoughts and speeches assuring to take care of all the people are the ones healing the badly wounded feelings of the minorities and other excluded Americans who have come across untold miseries during the Trump’s regime in the great democratic USA. The USA has had a beautiful and independent judiciary and we do hope that it would continue to be a beacon light to the judiciary of the whole world by not succumbing to the unholy and cunning Political Executive.

We are also happy to greet Ms. Kamala Harris for getting elected Vice President of the USA and do hope she would be of unstinted support to your Presidency and to the people of the USA although she has her maternal roots of origin in our country and that she would be loyally rendering her services to her country men while being of use to the world peace and prosperity, of course, our country as well, within the diplomatic boundaries. If Ms. Kamala Harris had got her ancestral roots of origin in the USA and had settled down in India, it would not have been possible for her to get elected to this kind of second highest position in India although our country has been a home for many foreigners. Kudos to the liberal Americans for having elected her to this august office!

On this occasion, we will fail in our duty if we don’t place on record our appreciation of the fullest co-operation extended to the Democrats by Mr. Barack Obama, the wonderful humanist and one of the noblest and humblest Presidents, the USA has ever had. It is a well known fact that the USA has been a frontline leader in the world affairs and we earnestly believe that you will not fail to respect the democracies in the world and to contribute your best to promote the peace and promotion in the world including our country’s development and the mutual diplomatic relationship. Lord Buddha said, “Hatred does not cease by hatred, but by love alone; this is the eternal law” and we do hope you will live up to this despite the challenging situation that may stare at you. Please beware of the hypocrites, chameleons and fascists. Please review whether all your Executive Appointees of our country’s origin or of any other country are free from fascism and sadism. You have before you an uphill and onerous task of rebuilding your country as well as the confidence of Americans. We once again wish you a very successful and benevolent governance under your dynamic leadership with a very robust health to head and lead the United States of America.

With warm regards,

Yours sincerely,
