Greater Noida (World Desk): The first Indian-descent American Kash Patel took oath as the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the United States of America on Saturday. The FBI is the top investigation agency in US.
He took oath by placing his hand on the Bhagavad Gita and said “I am the living the American dream, and anyone who thinks the American dream is dead, look right here. You’re talking to a first-generation Indian who is about to lead the law enforcement agency of the greatest nation on earth. That can’t happen anywhere else.”
During this occasion, US President Donald Trump said, “One of the reasons I loved Kash and wanted to put him in was the respect the agents had for him. I think he’ll go down as the best ever at that position.”
US Senator Lindsey Graham writes, “I am extremely pleased to have cast my vote to confirm Kash Patel as the new director of the FBI. Kash has been a federal defense attorney and prosecutor, and he has been deeply involved in counter terrorism practice and policy. He was also one of the key figures who discovered the Russian hoax against President Trump. Kash is the right man to clean up the FBI to restore Americans’ confidence and trust that the FBI is not a political organization, it is a law enforcement organization. The men and women of the FBI will be in good hands with Kash Patel.”
