Des Plaines, IL (Oct. 1, 2025) – Sanjyot Dunung, a Congressional candidate for Illinois’ 8th District, has received the endorsement of the Hindu American PAC (HAPAC), an independent and non-partisan political action committee representing the Hindu American community. This endorsement for Dunung further solidifies her commonsense campaign momentum and is another vote of confidence in her path to victory.
HAPAC’s mission is to identify and support new candidates or incumbents who prioritize and are committed to religious freedom, civil and human rights, and other Hindu American interests.
Said Rishi Bhutada, Co-Founder and Board Member of HAPAC, “Sanjyot’s unwavering passion for religious freedoms exemplifies the core values we advocate at Hindu American PAC. Her dedication to ensuring that every Hindu American can practice their beliefs freely is a reflection of her commitment to the civil rights of our nation. We believe her leadership as a future Representative will better society and ensure every voice matters.”
“I am incredibly honored by the endorsement from Hindu American PAC,” said Dunung. “This support strengthens my advocacy for the preservation of religious freedoms and practices for all Americans. Our Founding Fathers established constitutional religious freedom through the First Amendment, and I am committed to protecting both religious liberty and civil governance so that every American will always have the right to express and practice their beliefs freely. I am dedicated to championing these values and ensuring that the voices of everyone in Illinois 8, our state, and our country are heard and respected.”
Dunung’s campaign for Congress is focused on actively working to introduce commonsense, practical ideas for solutions-based policies that will help create a brighter future for everyone – a future where daily life is more affordable, safer, healthier – built on a foundation of freedom, opportunity, dignity, and security for all Americans.
