Mamdani, who grew up in the Indian diaspora and identifies as Muslim, emphasized pluralism and inclusivity, stating he would represent all New Yorkers regardless of differing views on Modi.
His comments, made at multiple Hindu temples, underscored his broader campaign focus on equity, affordability, and social justice.
