Joe Biden has sworn-in as the 46th President of the United States on Wednesday in what has become a historical inauguration in modern US history. After taking over the reign from Tumultuous Trump, Biden soon began the process of overhauling the trajectory of the country by repealing and undoing divisive and autocratic policies of the Trump regime and entered the White House with the commitment of giving place to diversity and pluralism by vacating supremacy from his office. 

When the American people elected him as their next president, Joe Biden began building his administration with diversity by roping in people of color and children of immigrants to his new administration with a priority of tackling the raging COVID-19 pandemic, health, and climate crisis, amid getting an unsupportive presidential transition from his predecessor Donald Trump. During the transition, Joe Biden has appointed dozens of Indian-Americans to steer his administration towards addressing the domestic and global challenges and delivering his promises to the American people.
