NYC-CC28: Japneet Singh (D) runs for NYC Council District 28

Longtime Queens resident Japneet Singh, (D) candidate for the New York City Council 28th District, hosted a fun-filled Easter Egg hunt for more than 200 children on April 19 at Police Officer Edward Byrne Park in South Ozone Park.

Singh, who came to America from India when he was just five years old, shared treats and delighted in the festivities by scattering decorated eggs on the park’s grounds before sharing pizza, drinks, and candy with the excited kids in a long line. Since he announced his candidacy, Singh has been engaging scores of votes across the district.

If elected on June 24, Singh, who traces his roots to India, will become the first Sikh or Punjabi to represent the diverse neighborhoods of South Jamaica, Richmond Hill, Rochdale Village, and middle-class South Ozone Park.

Singh, a Queens College Master of Accounting, Economics, Finance & International Business graduate and former President of the Student Association called on the community to come out and vote and to use the opportunity of early voting from June 14 to June 22.
