There are mostly Indians in Biden administration
Biden was sworn in as America's 46th president on January 20. He has appointed at least 55 people of Indian origin in his administration. Half of them are women and they are working in the White House. Earlier, most people of Indian origin were appointed during the tenure of Barack Obama.
