India–US Trade Agreement Hailed as Historic by Donald Trump

The recently announced India–US trade agreement has been described as “historic” by former US President Donald Trump. The deal is expected to lower tariffs on several Indian exports while opening new markets for American goods in India.

Supporters believe the agreement will strengthen bilateral relations, improve export competitiveness, and attract foreign investment. Key sectors such as manufacturing, IT services, and pharmaceuticals are expected to benefit.

However, farmer organisations and small traders have raised concerns over increased imports and possible pressure on domestic pricing. The government has assured that national interests and sensitive sectors will be protected.
