In a veiled response to Trump’s tariff hike, PM Modi reaffirmed India’s commitment to farmers at the MS Swaminathan Conference, stating, “India will never compromise on the interests of farmers, fishermen, and dairy farmers.” Aware of the cost, he added, “We are ready for it.” This follows the US doubling tariffs to 50% over Russian oil. India called the move “unfair” and vowed to protect its energy security.
