Lawmaker to introduce bill to make Diwali federal holiday in US

Congressman Caroline Maloney will introduce a bill in the U.S. Congress to designate Diwali as a federal holiday in the United States. On Wednesday, the Democratic House of Representatives from New York will present her legislation on Capitol Hill with members of the Indian caucus including Rep. Ro Khanna, Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi and other advocates.

Sanjeev Joshipura, Executive Director of Indiaspora, represents members of the Indian-American community and will also join the ranks of women members of Congress who have long supported the Indian diaspora. If the bill is approved, federal agencies will celebrate this holiday, with a large population celebrating Diwali and respecting the cultural heritage of the millions of Indian Americans who celebrate the holiday in the United States.

Congressman Maloney has successfully worked with advocates across the country in the past and led Congress’ efforts to urge the U.S. Postal Service to approve and issue a commemorative stamp commemorating Diwali, which has been in circulation since 2016. Maloney has worked tirelessly for this cause, and she believes that “a relatively small operation is of great significance to millions of people.”

Husband Mark Zuckerberg fulfils ‘disco queen’ Priscilla Chan’s demand for a party and how

Mark Zuckerberg’s party for Priscilla Chan has won people over. Many were surprised by the tech billionaire’s makeover.

Mark Zuckerberg never shies away from sharing glimpses of his sweet and heartwarming moments with his family. From sharing pics of a statue of his wife, Priscilla Chan, to turning into a nail artist for his daughter, he regularly posts visuals which wow people. In a similar post, he shared pictures to show what he did when his “disco queen” wife asked for a party.

“Disco queen wanted a party,” Zuckerberg wrote as he posted the pictures. The first photo shows the couple sharing an intimate moment while kissing each other. The other images show them enjoying the party, with both dressed in shimmery clothes.

What did social media say?

“I always knew you were this cool,” posted an Instagram user. “He changed after attending Ambani’s wedding,” joked another. This has been a viral remark after Mark Zuckerberg’s recent wardrobe update, including Hawaiian shirts and a thick gold chain, which coincidentally happened after he attended Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s first pre-wedding festivities.

Roman-inspired statue

A few days ago, the Meta CEO unveiled a giant statue in his backyard. Created by Daniel Arsham, it is a larger-than-life statue of his wife.

He met Priscilla Chan at Harvard University in 2003 as a student. The couple later got married in 2012. They have three daughters: Maxima, August (born August 2017), and Aurelia.
