Our brave jawans have been constantly at it with hardly any food or sleep—it is because of them that we can sleep peacefully and live our lives in comfort.'

‘Trump mocking, insulting India; he has slapped us': How Opposition reacted to 25% tariff

Just after the United States imposed a 25 per cent tariff on Indian products, the Opposition slammed Donald Trump's decision and said he has insulted India. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Congress have reacted to the US decision to charge 25 per cent tariff. AAP MP Sanjay Singh said Donald Trump had been mocking India for far too long, suggesting Prime Minister Narendra Modi 'should oppose' and formulate a strategy for India to respond to the 25 per cent tariffs. 'Donald Trump is mocking and insulting India every day. He invites (Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff) Asim Munir and (ISI Director-General) Asim Malik for lunch. Trump even said that he loves Pakistan. I think, the Prime Minister should strongly oppose this move and formulate a strong strategy for India,' he said. Congress MP Mallu Ravi said, 'In our country, we are afraid of taking the name of the US President and agreeing to whatever they (US) say. That's why he (Trump) has imposed a 25 per cent tax on our imports and exports, and has even threatened to impose a penalty. This is not acceptable to India.' 'The government considers Trump a friend, but he has actually slapped us; Indian businessmen will suffer due to this. We will raise all issues in Parliament,' he said. Meanwhile, BJP MP Ashok Chavan said the Commerce Minister was regularly in touch with the US to form a trade deal. 'I dont think President Trump's decision comes after a consensus or a mutual discussion. Our Minister of Commerce was in regular touch with the US administration... Any scope of appeal or discussion must be duly addressed so that India doesn't face any losses,' he said.

Operation Sindoor debate: Oppn MPs walk out from Rajya Sabha over PM Modi's absence – 'insult to the House'

Members of Opposition INDIA bloc staged a walkout on Wednesday from the Rajya Sabha after a heated altercation between Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Leader of Opposition in the House Mallikarjun Kharge over Prime Minister Narendra Modi's absence during the proceedings in the Upper House. Opposition MPs led by Kharge demanded that the Prime Minister come to the Upper House and brief them on Operation Sindoor as he did on Tuesday in the Lok Sabha. Kharge said that PM Modi should have come to the House, as many of the Opposition's questions were directly related to him. 'There was a demand from the Opposition that the PM should come to the House and give a reply. If the PM doesn't come to the House despite being present in Parliament premises, then it is an insult to the House,' Kharge said. Replying to this, Deputy Chairman of the House Harivansh said, "Mr. Kharge, I would like to inform you that I have already explained that any minister from the government side can respond. This is the ruling. You cannot force anyone." Home Minister Amit Shah said that Mallikarjun Kharge is raising this point, who is not allowed by his own party to speak on important matters. "Mr. Kharge is raising this issue, even though his own party (Congress) doesn't allow him to speak on important matters," Shah said. Shah concluded the debate. The Rajya Sabha LoP again stood up and said to the Deputy Chairman, 'You interrupt on every point.' The Opposition MPs then staged a walkout from the House. Targeting them, Amit Shah said that the opposition members simply cannot stand to listen to this debate, as they were unable to stop terrorism for so many years. "The opposition's demand is not justified because in the Business Advisory Committee meeting, it was decided that the discussion can go on as long as you want, but it is up to the government to decide who will respond," Shah said. "I know why they are leaving -- because for so many years, in the name of protecting their vote bank, they did nothing to stop terrorism. They simply cannot stand to listen to this debate," he added. Speaking in Lok Sabha on Tuesday, Shah announced that all three Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorists who were involved in the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22 were neutralised during Operation Mahadevon the outskirts of Srinagar on Monday. Twenty-six civilians were killed in the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir, after which India retaliated through precision strikes under Operation Sindoor, targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir(PoK). If the PM doesn't come to the House... then it is an insult to the House. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh addressed the Lok Sabha during the special discussion on 'Operation Sindoor', India's military response to the Pahalgam terror attack, on Monday. Singh addressed the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday. PM Modi is expected to speak in the Lok Sabha later in the day. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said no world leader asked India to stop its military action against Pakistan during 'Operation Sindoor' after four days of conflict in May in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack. In his address to theLok Sabha,which lasted about 100 minutes, Modi lamented that while the nation received support from across the world, the Congress and its allies could not support the valour of the nation's soldiers.

25% tariff + penalty: How economists, experts reacted to Trump tariff on India

United States President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that a 25% tariff will be imposed on goods imported from India starting August 1, with an unspecified penalty for buying Russian weapons and surprise announcement came a day after Indian officials said that a US trade team would visit from August 25 to negotiate a trade deal. The announcement is being seen a pressure tactics to get New Delhi to agree to demands made by the US, which has in recent days got favourable trade deals with major partners like Japan, the UK and the European on the 25% tariff, Harsha Vardhan Agarwal, President, FICCI said, 'While this move is unfortunate and will have a clear bearing on our exports, we hope that this imposition of higher tariffs will be a short-term phenomenon and that a permanent trade deal between the two sides will be finalised soon.''India and U.S. have a long-standing partnership, which is strengthened by our deepening engagement across an array of areas from technology to defence to energy and advance manufacturing. There is a lot our two countries can achieve together, and FICCI is confident that following the detailed deliberations that are currently underway, we will see beneficial outcomes for both countries when the contours of the final trade agreement will emerge,' he added. "While the negotiations seem to have broken down, we don't think the trade-deal haggling between the two nations is over yet. We see it more from the lens of geopolitics than purely economics and see both sides striving to get the deal done, even as the power equations may change a bit in U.S. favour," said Madhavi Arora, Economist at Emkay Global. "Higher tariffs for India compared to countries it competes with, for exports to the U.S., are going to be challenging. However, the expectation is that the trade deal is likely to be finalised shortly and hence the period of applicability of these higher tariffs could be short," said R Anen Banerjee, partner of economic advisory at PWC India. "Despite the unpredictable policy making of the U.S., the market was expecting a tariff deal to work out as longer-term U.S.-India strategic interests are aligned. Markets will hope for a 'TACO' trade if better senses prevail. China is defying U.S./UN sanction on Iran oil, Myanmar and Russia trade and North Korea support. Size and the competitiveness of the economy has its advantages. I hope and pray that this unilateral imposition should accelerate Indian policy making to be growth supportive. Our biggest deterrence continues to remain GDP size and competitiveness," said Nilesh Shah, MD, Kotak Mahindra AMC. "The decision to raise the U.S. tariff to 25% on Indian exports is an unfortunate development, particularly given the strong strategic partnership that has been steadily built between India and the USA in recent years. However, it's important to note that both countries remain positively engaged in active negotiations with the U.S. team expected in India later in August to finalize a comprehensive trade agreement," said Agneshwar Sen, Trade Policy Leader, EY India.
