New Delhi wants to resume negotiations on the long-pending Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement with Australia, talks for which stalled in 2015.
To boost exports, India must accept its challenge is internal, even though it keeps raising fingers at unfavourable external factors like trade protectionism.
Govt data says export of non-basmati rice declines by over 37% — from 50,48,000 MT in April-November 2018 to 31,41,000 MT during same period last year.
As many as 18 of 30 key sectors, including petroleum goods, leather products, rice and tea, showed negative growth in exports. Imports also declined by 16.31%.
Greens have a sizeable support in the Western countries with clean air and blue skies, but not in India, where poisonous air, water and soil kill millions.
The helicopters produced by Lockheed Martin are known as ‘submarine hunters’. India ordered 24 of these aircraft in 2020 to replace the Sea King helicopters. 15 have been delivered till date.
The India-South Africa series-defining fact is the catastrophic decline of Indian red ball cricket where a visiting team can mock us with the 'grovel' word.
India is making a grave mistake! A bunch of nincompoops have been handling Indian foreign affairs since 1947.
There is no other country in the world that is as friendless as India.
Not a single neighbour can frankly be called a friend of India!
Except Nepal we don’t have open borders with any country.
There is no other country in the world in similar situation.
We could not settle boundary with China since 1947/49 when both countries have new power systems and have been freed from colonial and imperialist yolk.
No other country has such undetermined boundaries for that long.
Kashmir issue has been festering and bleeding India, socially, economically and militarily bringing disrepute to the country since 1949. No other country kept such issue burning for this long.
The Belt and Road initiative is god sent for India.
India has to just lay road and rail connectivity inside it’s own boundaries! That’s not doing charity to anyone.
If we have any other capacity, it’s a great employment generator for Indian labour force to engage in BRI work in treat of the world under Indian and even Chinese companies as we have English speaking technical manpower.
The ground that China and Pakistan laid BRI road/rail network in the gilgit Baltistan area under the control of Pakistan thereby affecting the sovereignty of India is the craziest argument!
China insisted and put in a clause with Pakistan in the BRI agreement conceding that that area is a disputed area, and whenever the disputes are settled between the respective parties, China will negotiate with the party to whom the control passes and the road/rail network presence will not be used for adverse inference.
China has voluntarily done what India could ask.
These idiots in external affairs ministry, always subservient to white supremacy and white colonial/imperial interests have been the cause of greatest damage to the possible development of Indian economy and political stature in the world.
Indian politicians of all
Parties must unite, examine all these anomalies and reign in these bunch of idiots acting as agents of USA and the west and their deputy sheriff Australia!
Japan does not manufacture anything … The rest of the RCEP countries are mainly exporters … These statements are incomprehensible. 2. Whether India should join RCEP – I think it should – is for the government to decide. However, not doing so diminishes the chances that we can work out country specific FTAs with Australia or – in future – Britain, the US, or with the EU. The Indian economy is becoming both less integrated and less competitive. We can keep building walls to mask reality.
