Indian and South Asian Immigration

Indian and South Asian immigration to the United States has a rich history, particularly increasing after the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, which removed quotas that limited immigrants from certain countries. Many immigrants from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and other South Asian countries have come to the U. S.

for education, employment, and to reunite with family. This influx has led to the establishment of thriving communities that celebrate their cultural heritage through festivals, food, and traditions, enriching the American cultural landscape.
