Congratulations to Prime Minister @NarendraModi ji and President @RealDonaldTrump, as well as to the people of India and the United States, on the landmark trade agreement. This reflects the power of two like-minded, fair-trading democracies working together for shared prosperity.

Grateful to PM @NarendraModi ji and President @realDonaldTrump for their visionary and decisive leadership, and strong commitment to strengthening India–U.S. ties.

This unlocks the power of two large democracies working together for the shared prosperity of their people. Both India and US are natural allies and our partnership will co-create technologies, co-develop solutions, and work together for peace, growth, and a brighter future for India and US.

This agreement unlocks unprecedented opportunities for farmers, MSMEs, entrepreneurs, and skilled workers to Make in India for the world, Design in India for the world, and Innovate in India for the world. It will help India get technology from the US.

It is not just a trade deal - it is a historic turning point that will reshape India–U.S. relations and accelerate our journey towards Viksit Bharat 2047. 🇮🇳🇺🇸

🇮🇳 India’s Global Trade Deals: Opening Markets & Powering Export Growth
On 11 February at Vanijya Bhawan, New Delhi I attended two high-powered meetings The first was a dedicated interaction with the Hon’ble Minister of Commerce & Industry, shri Piyush Goyal ji, and the Hon’ble Minister of State, shri Jitin Prasada ji, where a 15-member industry delegation conveyed its sincere appreciation for the Government’s landmark global trade deals, under the visionary leadership of our Hon’ble Prime Minister, shri Narendra Modi ji. This was followed by an EPC Review Meeting with Export Promotion Councils and industry bodies from across India.
The trade agreements with the US, UK, EU, and EFTA mark a major milestone—opening global markets for Indian exports through reduced and near-zero tariffs.The leather and footwear sector remains confident that these deals will significantly strengthen India’s export competitiveness.
