She has become the first person from the Indian-American community to be elected to public office in the city, reflecting the community’s inclusion in politics. As numerous Americans of Indian origin live in Jersey City, her achievement carries significance, bringing recognition to the community. Singh is well-known for founding an organisation called JCFamilies that works towards assisting and supporting families. She is also known for providing guidance and assistance to Indian immigrants.
