Modi Stands Firm on Farmers Amid US Tariff Crisis
Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently emphasized his commitment to farmers during a conference, stating he would not compromise their interests despite a new 25% tariff imposed by the US on Indian exports. This tariff, which raises total duties to 50%, has raised concerns about the economic impact on India and its relations with the US. Modi reiterated that protecting farmers, fishermen, and dairy producers is a top priority, even if it means facing economic challenges. The Indian government views the tariff as unfair and is exploring new markets to mitigate potential losses.
