Mayor Eric Adams Quickly Apologizes After Confusing India With Pakistan During Indian Independence Celebration

Mayor Eric Adams confused India with Pakistan while speaking at an event commemorating Indian independence on Saturday, leading Hizzoner to quickly apologize for the President Biden-like gaffe.

Adams reportedly committed the mix-up at an Indian Independence Day parade in Queens, where he mistakenly referenced Pakistan multiple times.

“…So I thank you for allowing me to come here. I’ve known this community for so long, from little Pakistan and Queens, little Pakistan and Brooklyn, you are a major foundation of our entire city,” Hizzoner said during the remarks, Times of India reported, citing another outlet, PTI.

Earlier in the speech, he also said “Pakistani officers” when giving a shout-out to the law enforcement community that was on hand, the outlet reported.
