Washington Leadership Program

Building the next generation of American leadership from the South Asian American community.

This is a complete punch in the gut. Rahul was a tremendous spirit, extremely kind-hearted, and so so giving to support fellow South Asians in politics. He was a great friend and mentor to @TheWLP and fought hard to make this country a better place.

20 years ago, I interned on the Hill through @TheWLP, a program designed to get young South Asians more politically engaged. At the time, we had countless conversations about lack of representation in DC (I, like of my fellow interns, worked for mostly white male MOCs).
