An old video of Texas Governor Greg Abbott saying that Texas will remain a land for the Indian community as long as he remains governor went viral on Monday as social media users shared the video claiming that Abbott said this after the controversy over Chhath Puja being celebrated by Hindus in Texas. “Greg Abbott declares Texas a place for Indian community, what about Texans Greg? Where do we go?”. influencer Kaylee Campbell said, reposting Abbott’s video. \u201cWhat does Greg have that makes him say that,\u201d the influencer said. The video in question is from Diwali celebrations, not recent. “As long as I am governor of this great state, Texas will remain a land for the Indian community… and we will continue to celebrate Diwali here in the great state of Texas,” Abbott said in the video. Republican leader Alexander Duncan said, “How outrageous is @GregAbbott_TX. Promoting every third world culture there is and doing nothing to protect Texas: ‘Texas will be a land for the Indians’.” The attack on Abbott comes at a time when hatred among Indians is on the rise, especially in Texas, as the state has a large number of immigrants, including Indians. Several Texas-based influential people have begun speaking out about what they call the ‘Indian takeover’ of the state, with many claiming to have exposed H-1B visa abuse. Greg Abbott halted H-1B visa hiring at Texas universities and agencies in a major move against the visa program that allows companies to hire specialized workers from outside. Recently, another controversy erupted in Texas when a viral video showed Indians pouring milk into a lake as part of Chhath Puja celebrations in Denton. Several posts claimed that Abbott’s comments on the Indian community were in the wake of the Chhath Puja controversy.Abbott won the Texas Republican primary last month as he seeks a fourth consecutive term in office.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
