US elections: Hindu priests in Delhi hold hawan for Donald Trump's victory against Kamala Harris (WATCH)

With just hours left until polls open on election day in the United States on Tuesday, the country, and the world, faces a nail-biting wait to know whether Kamala Harris becomes the first US woman President or Donald Trump secures a spectacular return to power after his unprecedented and at times violent campaign to overturn his 2020 reelection loss to Joe Biden.

On Monday, a group of Hindu priests in New Delhi held hawan, a traditional Hindu ritual, and prayed for Donald Trump. They hoped that Trump will emerge victorious in the US elections.

"Vote for Donald Trump, make world great again," the priests raised slogans as they hoped for his win against Kamala Harris.

भारतीय मूल की कमला देवी की हार और डोनाल्ड ट्रंप की जीत के लिए दिल्ली में साधु–संतों ने हवन किया। "वोट फॉर डोनाल्ड ट्रंप" के नारे लगाए। अब तो डोनाल्ड भाई की जीत पक्की लग रही।

Trump, who served as America's 45th president from 2017 to 2021, is seeking a return to office. His campaign has been marked by controversial remarks on issues such as support for Ukraine and NATO, abortion rights, tax policies, fundamental democratic principles, and tariffs that could potentially ignite trade conflicts.
