Kash Patel Takes Oath On Bhagwad Gita In The 'Indian Treaty Room', Sworn In By AG Pam Bondi

Indian-American Kash Patel took the oath as the FBI director, swearing on the Bhagavad Gita. Kash Patel's girlfriend and family stood beside him as he recited the oath. Other members of his family were seated in the front row. US President Donald Trump also attended Kash Patel's swearing-in ceremony. The Indian Treaty Room, a historic chamber in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, served as the venue for Indian-American Kash Patel’s swearing-in. Originally built in the late 19th century as the Navy Department Library and Reception Room, the elaborately decorated Indian Treaty Room has since hosted significant events, including presidential press conferences and high-level meetings, and also served as one of the rooms to sign treaties. The exact origin of the name ‘Indian Treaty Room’ and its connection to India remains unclear. However, it is believed that the room earned its name in the 1930s when the War Department stored treaties signed with American Indian nations there.
