Nalik Haley, the 24-year-old son of former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley , drew flak after he criticized Vivek Ramaswamy 's recent statement on his Hindu religion at a Montana event. Ramaswamy said he believes in one God, though he is a Hindu. He said it's just like how believing in the Holy Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit)does not make a Christian polytheist. The statement came as Ramaswamy was asked about his faith.
Nalin Haley , a Catholic, objected to the comparison and said it was blasphemous to compare the Holy Trinity with the "330 million gods" in the Hindu religion.
"Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse. Comparing the Holy Trinity to your 330 million gods is blasphemous, disrespectful, and a slap in the face to every Christian. If you’re gonna run for governor in a state that is Christian, have the decency to learn our faith and not slander it," Nalin wrote drawing flak from commentators.
Social media commentators said both Nikki Haley and her son hate their Indian origin. Some criticized how Nalin mentioned the pronunciation of his name on hs X bio as Nay-lin, while it is an Indian, Hindu name.
"You’re literally a Sikh Indian bro you’ll never be one of us let it go who cares. Larping weirdo," one said.
Nalin Haley made it clear to specify that he is a Catholic and not a Sikh, though his grandparents from his mother's side were Sikh. "My Sikh grandparents never disrespected the Christian faith and compared their God to the Holy Trinity," he said.
People accused him of hating his origin and trying to prove himself as a White, Christian American, forgetting his roots. Nalin said he never denied being half Indian and he never will.
Nikki Haley, or Nimarata Randhawa, was born in South Carolina to immigrant Punjabi Sikh parents. She became the first Inidan-American to serve in a presidential cabinet when she served as the US ambassador to the UN. She was also a candidate for the 2024 presidential election. She married Michael Haley in 1996 and converted to Christianity .
