Donald Trump invited for Indian-American event against terrorism

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has been invited for an Indian-American event in the US to raise funds for the victims of terrorism, the event organisers said on Tuesday.

The Humanity United Against Terror Charity event would be held in New Jersey on October 9, the Republican Hindu Coalition said.

“Invited guests also include Donald J. Trump, who will be the keynote speaker at the event,” the organisation said in a statement.

“The net proceeds of this event will go to the victims of terror all across the world, with particular emphasis on the plight of 500,000 Hindu refugees that are victims of Islamic extremist terrorism,” it said.

Meanwhile, the weekly NBC News/Survey Monkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll has revealed that Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton now leads her Republican rival by only four per cent, a drop of two points. Clinton has the support of 48 per cent against 44 per cent of the people who support Trump.
