Running for office wasn’t planned, but the community’s needs made it clear. I’m here to bring real change—fairness, honesty, and the persistence our families deserve every day.

I was raised in a single-room home in rural India with a leaky roof that reminded us, every monsoon, how fragile stability can be. Discrimination and poverty shaped my earliest memories. My parents sacrificed a lot so that my brother and I could study, because they strongly believed that education could break generational barriers, and it did. My brother and I became the first in my family to graduate from college, then I journeyed 8,448 miles to America with a bag of clothes and a heart full of hope. I earned a Master’s in Chemical Engineering and later an MBA.
Long before politics, my dad showed me what real leadership looks like—working long hours on factory floors, staying steady under pressure, and doing the right thing even when nobody was watching. And I grew up with labor union leaders in our home, sometimes staying until 1 a.m., talking about equality, dignity, and fair wages. Listening to those conversations shaped me. I learned to face problems with calm, compassion, and facts—not noise. The pandemic made that lesson even clearer: leadership isn’t slogans. It’s care. That’s when I decided to serve.
I’ve chased the small business dream—running a food truck, launching ventures, and sweating payroll when every cent mattered. I know that when a small business is doing well, the whole community feels it: jobs stay local, families have stability, and our main streets stay vibrant. I’ve lived the anxiety of simply trying to make it—covering payroll, keeping the lights on, and stretching every dollar—which is why I’ll fight for policies that help working families and small businesses not just get by, but grow, because I’ve been there, too.
I knocked on more than 4000 doors, and 3992 neighbors put me in this seat on Erie’s Town Council. No big donors, lots of hope and grassroots support. In 2023, I ran for the BVSD School Board and came up short in the election. But 9,000 parents trusted me with their children’s future. I didn’t see that as a loss—I saw it as the start of something bigger.
From engineer to elected leader, Anil’s journey is one of dedicated service, unwavering grit, and deep grassroots hope for our community’s future.

Running for office wasn’t part of my plan, but listening to our community made the choice clear. I’m running to help usher in a new era of politics—people first, power back in the hands of neighbors, and real change rooted in fairness, honesty, and the persistence our families deserve every day.
