Mamdani created history with victory
Mamdani created history by winning the election for the post of Mayor of New York City. All eyes were on this election, by winning which Mamdani became the first South Asian and Muslim person to hold the top post of America’s largest city.
Mamdani was considered ahead of other candidates in the elections for the last several months. On Tuesday, he defeated Republican Party candidate Curtis Sliwa and politically influential leader and New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo. Cuomo, who contested the elections as an independent candidate, received the support of US President Donald Trump just before the voting.
