The decision of US President Donald Trump to impose 25% of additional tariffs (tax) on goods from India to America has intensified political stir in the country. This tax has been imposed by India for buying oil from Russia. After this decision, the goods going from India to the US market will now be charged a total tax. In this case, there is a continuous response of opposition parties. MPs of Congress, JMM and Left parties have questioned the foreign policy of the government and the Prime Minister’s strategy. Let’s know who said what?
Pawan Kheda said- America is doing blackmail
Reacting to the US tariff policy, Congress spokesperson Pawan Kheda called it blackmail. He said that this is direct blackmail. Today we are in the condition that a superpower can threaten us, it is a matter of shame. He said that for the last 11 years, our foreign policy, Prime Minister’s foreign tours, migrant programs were the purpose of making the image of Modi ji only, rather than the interests of the country. Now the country is paying its price. We hope that there is no agreement that goes against India’s interests.
Mahua Maji said- Effect will be more on America
At the same time, on this decision of America, JMM MP Mahua Maji said that this decision will affect America more than India. He said that the people of India even know to live in a low. There is poverty here, people know to live in lack. He said that inflation will increase in America, as they will get Indian goods expensive. Maji said that the Prime Minister should speak on this in ‘Mann Ki Baat’ that he had such a good relationship with Trump. Also, now we should look for alternative business partners, because the world is not just America.
CPI MP P Santosh said to retaliate
Along with this, Left party CPI MP P Santosh Kumar directly attacked the Prime Minister over the tariff of America. He said that Trump’s second term is going to degrade India. We should answer. He said that the Prime Minister is at number four on social media, but when something is serious, such as Indo-Pak tension after the incident of Pahalgam, he does not speak anything. The whole world feels that India’s leadership is weak. Now the country is at the top, so it is necessary to answer.
