Tanmay Shah: Voters in Ward 12 in City of Cleveland made a wise choice.
Tanmay Shah is the newest and youngest Cleveland City Councilman. His name suggests that he may have a Gujarati Jain background.
Arguably, Jainism is the best religion in the world. Is there any other religion that has Kshmavani? Is there any other religion that has Marasaheb? Is there any other religion that promotes non-violence as much as Jainism (and a lot of Jains) do?
Jains tend to be good people and are likely one of the best immigrant imports into our country from India. I hope the young Councilman Tanmay Shah keeps the valuable teachings of Jainism in mind as he gets along in his job.
