Maybe it's some sort of confirmation bias, but it seems like there's a lot of prominent right wing people of Indian ancestry (Vivek Ramaswamy, Dinesh D'Souza, Nikki Haley). Is it confirmation bias or is this a real thing? If the latter, what is driving it other than US immigration policies excluding leftists?

Well the west fails at courting African countries because they can't help by being racist and exploit everyone, and many of them aren't near superpower level like India. The west is also racist towards Indians and exploit them, but the country's productive capacity and population means they can have leverage while pursuing their own agenda. Many African producers of minerals and metals are starting to stand up and tell the west to fuck off, but they still have to be balance a relationship with China and the west because they lack the productive forces.
