Florida's Palm Bay councilman Chandler Langevin has come under fire for his anti-India comments. Florida councilman Chandler Langevin who created a ripple by his targeted attack on Indians in the US was censured in a 3-2 vote by the Palm Bay council as the council took note of his offensive comments on the Indian community.
