Zohran Mamdani's primary win in New York has sparked outrage among supporters of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who see Mamdani as a symbol of a 'divided' America and a threat to Hindu-American relations. If he wins the general election, Mamdani would make history as the first South Asian mayor of New York City and the first of Indian origin.
