As a senior member of the House International Relations Committee. and particularly as someone who has supported a strong relationship between the United States and India. it has been my privilege to get to know Mr. Chatterjee. He has worked tirelessly with key decision makers in Washington to help the worlds oldest democracy become better friends with the worlds largest democracy. It is a fitting tribute to his work that Swadesh was elected to this post. Mr. Speaker. we are a nation of immigrants. Swadesh Chatterjees life is the classic success story of an American citizen who immigrated to this country and rose to become a leader in his community. Swadesh was born in Calcutta. India. where his mother still resides. and graduated in 1965 from Calcutta University with a degree in physics.
