It’s time to be a voice for all, return to unity and adopt a fresh perspective.
Hello, I'm Minu
My family has lived in Raleigh for more than 14 years. I’ve loved every second of it - the beautiful oak trees and diversity of art and culture make this place more than just a city. It’s home. I am - and always have been - dedicated to serving and improving our community. It’s time to take a crucial step toward further progress.
Together, we can be a progressive voice on the Raleigh City Council, advocating for affordable and low-income housing, responsible development, new policies that promote our environment, and political involvement for everyone in District B and beyond.
It is time to have a City Council member who is a representative of the future, not the past; a member of the younger generation. As a member of City Council, I will bring a fresh, new perspective to Raleigh politics. Through advocacy and action, we will strive to improve the quality of life for everyone that makes their home here.
We all believe in the greatness of Raleigh, it’s time to live it!
