Ackerman elected co-chairman of India Caucus
Washington: US Congressman Gary Ackerman, a Democrat from New York, was unanimously elected as co-Chairman of the India Caucus.

Ackerman is the first member from the House Caucus on India to return to that position since the caucus adopted a rotating chairmanship.

The bipartisan caucus has two co-chairmen, i.e, a Republican and a Democrat.

Ackerman was instrumental in removing nuclear-related sanctions on India and has led successful fights in the International Relations Committee and on the floor of the Congress, rallying House members to defeat assaults on the bilateral relationship by India bashers. Ackerman accompanied former US President Bill Clinton to India in 2000.
