Even in American politics, the influence of people of Indian origin is increasing now.

In this too, Ashwin Ramaswamy, a young man of Indian origin, has entered the field to contest the Senate elections in the state of Georgia at the age of 24. He is the first Indian American of Generation Z to enter the fray. The term Generation Z refers to individuals who were born between 1997 and 2012.

Ashwin Ramaswamy will be running as a Democrat against Republican incumbent Shawn Still in Georgia's District 48 seat. Sean Still has also been charged with violence by breaking into the US Parliament in 2020. Former President Donald Trump is also accused in the same case.

Ramaswamy's parents settled in America in 1990 from Tamil Nadu. Ashwin Ramaswamy graduated from Stanford University in 2021 with a degree in Computer Science. He is also a law graduate. Ashwin's parents are in the IT sector. Ashwin is deeply influenced by Ramayana, Mahabharata and Bhagavad Gita.

In an interview given to a news agency of India, he said that my mother is a resident of Chennai and my father is a resident of Coimbatore. I grew up in both Indian and American cultures. Being a Hindu I am very interested in Indian philosophy.I learned Sanskrit when I was in college.Yoga and meditation play a big part in my life. I also read Puranas and Upanishads.

He said that after completing my studies, I had a job in many startups. However, I realized that the government needed people who understood technology and I worked with a government agency on cyber security. I am running for State Senate to serve my community. I want all citizens to get the kind of opportunities I got. People need youths who have no political background as representatives.

Ashwin further said that everyone should get a good education. Everyone should have a job and everyone should get the benefit of health services. People's safety is also important to me. I will also try to prevent school shootings.

If Ashwin wins the state senate election, he will become the first senator from Generation Z to hold both computer science and law degrees. He will also have the honor of becoming the first senator of Indian origin in the state of Georgia.
