On this news bulletin, the focus is on the political row erupting over the newly announced India-US trade deal. Congress MP Manish Tewari joins the broadcast to question the implications of the agreement, asking, ‘Breakthrough at what cost?’ Tewari highlights concerns regarding India’s strategic autonomy, specifically pointing to the reported conditions involving the cessation of oil purchases from Russia in favour of Venezuela. He further critiques the disparity in tariff structures, noting a purported 18% tariff on Indian imports to the US compared to zero tariffs on American exports to India. The Congress leader expresses concern over a commitment to purchase $500 billion in energy and agricultural products from the US, suggesting these terms contradict India’s long-standing foreign policy of independent decision-making. Tewari argues that shifting India’s oil profile under external pressure carries significant risks for the nation’s energy security and economic trajectory, challenging the government’s previous stance on maintaining sovereign control over trade and foreign imperatives.
