Anyone on either side that was expelled from the Desi bowl is welcome here. Discuss all your politics , doesn’t matter if you are on the left right or center, but please be civil and respect one another. No personal attacks!

Appeal to all Indian consultants in this bowl to hit the little “me” icon at the bottom right of your screen, go to the settings icon on the top right and hit “send feedback” and let FB know what has been happening on the Desi bowl, arbitrarily blocking ppl who asked for action to be taken against folks making personal attacks.

Congratulations to Biden-Harris!!

So this bowl is supposed to be more indian politics focused ?
