BTA Provides India Room Amid US Tariff Threat
The New Indian Express Bengaluru
|March 08, 2025
DESPITE the Trump administration threatening India with reciprocal tariffs, India can still negotiate a 'favorable' deal with the US through the bilateral trade agreement (BTA) talks currently undergoing.
Experts believe that even with the threat of reciprocal tariffs hanging over India, the talks give the country time to understand the repercussions of Trump's move.
The two countries have agreed to negotiate a mutually beneficial, multi-sector Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA) by the fall of 2025.
The negotiations have begun with Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal already in the US leading the talks. The two countries have set a bold target of taking the total bilateral trade to $500 billion by 2030 from the current $130 billion.
With Trump announcing the reciprocal tariff on India to come into force from April 2, 2025, there are doubts on the future of the BTA between the two countries.

Adoption agency CEO: Are orphans falling into hands of traffickers?
IN a loaded statement on child adoptions in the country, Bhavana Saxena, Member Secretary and CEO, Central Adoption Resource Authority (CARA), said, “Is there any loophole in the legal system? We need to find out where the orphaned, abandoned and surrendered children are ending up. Why is the registration in the State Adoption Resource Centre and Child Care Institutions so low? Last year, in India, there were only 4,515 adoptions. It isa low figure though it is the highest in the last ten years. Are there leakages in the legal system through which these children are falling into the hands of traffickers? It is time that various departments work together and fix this issue.”

An Ayurvedic Apothecary
There's a quiet thrill in stepping onto a trail just as the hills wake up. As you begin your trek through Gold Valley in Maharashtra's Lonavala, the clouds play hide-and-seek. A Blue Mormon flutters past, disappearing into the dense canopy. The loud calls of Indian Grey Hornbills invites you deeper into this pocket of the Sahyadri Hills, on Western Ghats.
