Indian-American physician and philanthropist Dr Sudhir Parikh, who was awarded the prestigious Padmashri this year, has been felicitated by political leaders of New York and New Jersey at a reception hosted in Jersey City.
Parikh has "demonstrated exceptional leadership in the Indian-American community and has been a strong benefactor for the progression of Indian culture and heritage within our state and nation," said the New Jersey Governor Chris Christie in a message on the occasion.
