Bishop Sarat Chandra Nayak of Berhampur (Odisha) expresses a wish and offers a prayer for the new US president, Joe Biden, and the new US vice president, Kamala Harris. He also urges them not to forget those left behind.
Bishop Nayak chairs the Commission for Scheduled Castes/other Backward Castes and backward classes (i.e. Dalits and tribal people) of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of India. His prayer seems to answer the doubts that many Indians have about Harris’s election, i.e. whether she, coming from a high caste family, can help people in lower sections of society.
