Modi Govt’s US Trade Fiasco: Congress Slams Billions in Export Losses

The Congress party today launched a scathing attack on the Modi government, blaming its perceived failure to secure a favourable trade deal with the United States for crippling Indian exports. The opposition party alleges that the lack of a comprehensive agreement led to increased tariffs imposed during the Trump administration.

This, they claim, has resulted in billions of rupees in lost export revenue, impacting key Indian sectors. The Congress highlighted the detrimental effect on farmers, manufacturers, and the overall economy.

Congress leaders emphasized that while engaging with global powers is crucial, India’s national interests and strategic autonomy must remain paramount in all trade negotiations. They demanded a comprehensive explanation from the government on its trade strategy with the US.

The opposition’s sharp criticism comes at a time of growing economic anxieties. The impact of these alleged trade failures on the livelihoods of millions of Indians warrants immediate government attention and a transparent account of its actions.
