Indians in Argentina
There is a small community of Indians in Argentina who are mainly immigrants from India and some of whom were born in Argentina and are of Indian heritage.
==History==
The first Indians to arrive in Argentina were Sikhs from the Indian state of Punjab who came to Argentina in the early 19th century to work on a British-built railroad. In the 1970s, others came after being barred entry to Canada and the United States, the preferred destinations, along with Britain, for the emigrants.〔(Indian Sikhs grafting onto Argentina culture. ) sikhnet.com〕
Argentina seemed the most promising of South American nations, and so they stayed, eventually concentrating in the north, which reminded them of the scrappy mountains and plains of Punjab. Most of the immigrants settled in Rosario de la Frontera. This remote northern Argentine town is home to the only Sikh gurdwara in South America. Today, there are about 300 of them, many of whom run supermarkets and other shops. Mixed marriages with Catholic Argentines are common.
A large number of Indians living in Buenos Aires are businessmen, doctors, financial or business executives, and employees of multinational corporations. Most of them have retained their Indian citizenship.
