US Congresswoman takes oath on Bhagavad-Gita

Nevada, Jan 4 (IBNS) A US based Hindu group has applauded Tulsi Gabbard, the first Hindu recently elected to 113th United States (US) Congress, for taking the Oath of Office on ancient Hindu scripture Bhagavad-Gita (Song of the Lord), who was sworn on January three as a member of the US House of Representatives in Washington DC.

Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada (USA), commending Gabbard, 31, for this act, urged other politicians also to do the same.

Zed, who is President of Universal Society of Hinduism, said that as Bhagavad-Gita talked about endeavoring constantly to serve the world's welfare without any thought of personal gain, it should be the treatise for all the politicians and rulers of the world.
