The New Indian Express
|August 29, 2025
Chief Minister M K Stalin and Industries Minister T R B Rajaa on Thursday pressed the union government to urgently intervene after the US raised tariffs on Indian exports, warning of severe consequences for Tamil Nadu's economy.
"I reiterate my demands to the union government for immediate relief and structural reforms to safeguard our industries and workers," Stalin said in a post on X.
Stalin had earlier written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on August 16, cautioning that the 50% tariff hike could derail TN's textile sector and warned that as many as 30 lakh jobs could be at risk without swift intervention.
The minister on Thursday accused the union government of remaining "mute" in the face of the tariff rise.
