Neel Kashkari

Noting that the biggest banks continue to pose a significant risk to the US economy, Indian- American top federal bank official Neel Kashkari has called for breaking them into smaller ones.

Prominent Indian-American business executive Neel Kashkari was today appointed as the head of the US Federal Reserve's regional bank in Minneapolis.

Democrat Jerry Brown, who turned around California's finances after years of deficits, vowed to keep a tight rein on spending as he was sworn in on Monday for a record fourth term at the helm of US's most populous state.

California governor Jerry Brown said late Thursday he will approve a ban on single-use plastic bags, in what would make the western US state the first to outlaw them.

In a major boost to Indian-American Neel Kashkari's bid to become California's governor, ex-Florida governor Jeb Bush and former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney today endorsed him for the job.

After announcing his campaign for the California governor's post in January, Neel Kashkari has been polling at a paltry 2 per cent

Even as the 2014 general elections in the US are still more than eight months away, as many as 10 Indian-Americans have already announced their decision to enter the race for elected public offices, including the House of Representatives.

When Neel Kashkari announced he was running for governor last week, he became the latest Californian of Indian descent to step onto the political stage, the most recent example of a rising trend in one of America's most ethnically diverse states.

Former Indian-American US Treasury official Neel Kashkari, architect of the bank bailout during the 2008 financial crisis, plans to run for Governor of California with a pledge to create jobs and improve public schools.
