Its been 75 yrs since independence and we still haven't created a robust manufacturing sector. All we do is assembly. Indians know we cannot compete with Chinese manufacturing sector. How about being the second best after China? Can we atleast aim for that? We are ruled by a bunch of bunch of corrupt babus, police and judges who send their kids to USA on the back of black money they earned from corruption. These are the modern day NRIs who bootlick Trump and his white nationalist policies saying "hindu power" in USA. With Hindus, there is atleast a split between democrats and republicans like 60-40. Christian "NRI" are full on bootlickers of Trump and the MAGA party. There is no split. it is like 100 percent MAGA. Not to mention, church brainwash them to be fully supportive of Israel as well.

USA would have applied sanctions in 1998 regardless of democrats or republicans. Nuclear tests will bring in sanctions. Stop being so naive. It was Bill Clinton who rebuilt India-USA Strategic relations after the sanctions. The Clinton administration's efforts laid the foundation for a stronger US-India relationship, which has continued to evolve in subsequent administrations.

Trump respects people who stand up to him. Look at Putin, Xi, Carney from Canada. But then again, your country should be important in crucial sectors like rare earth processing like China to have the ability to stand up against USA. Modi rolls over like a puppy dog and India holds no trump cards thanks to its non-existing manufacturing sector compared to China. So it is understandable.

"While the outcome of the Section 232 investigation could alter the tariff landscape down the line, for now, Indian electronics manufacturers remain insulated, and are likely to benefit in the near term" So for now, we are safe till this Section 232 investigation is ongoing. India is in a very precarious situation.

The United States and Cambodia agreed on Friday to a trade deal that sets a 19 percent tariff on Cambodian goods, easing the concerns of a developing country that had been spooked for months by one of the steepest tariffs initially announced by the Trump administration. Cambodia is a key manufacturer in the global garment and footwear industry, making apparel and sneakers for brands such as the Gap, Levi’s and Nike. Source: NY Times

India has been accused by the U.S. commerce secretary of “slow rolling” its trade negotiations. Indian officials and analysts say the friction is caused by a fundamental difference of approach. Trump has a penchant for quick, top-down deal-making. India’s bureaucracy moves at a methodical pace, especially when it is about opening up the agriculture market, a politically sensitive issue. They point to India’s recently-concluded trade deal with Britain, which took three years of talks that continued under two different U.K. prime ministers. Source: NY Times

India buying Russian oil benefited Reliance and Nayara Energy(Russian owned) the most over state owned refineries. They exported it to Europe to earn huge profits. Ambanis conducted a 400 million dollar wedding on the profits of Reliance. Domestic petrol & diesel were not reduced even though companies bought cheap Russian oil. "Reliance’s stock price grew 34 percent since the war began" Modi helps Ambanis because they fund his party BJP. Private companies like RELIANCE do not invest in R&D. Only ISRO and DRDO do any R&D in India. We could have used IOCL to refine russian oil and use it for our infrastructure projects or R&D instead of Ambani wedding.

The breakdown of trust between Narandra Modi, India’s prime minister, and his “true friend” President Trump is likely to make it harder to finalize any deal, analysts say. Indian news outlets have reported that Trump wanted to iron out the outstanding issues, after four rounds of direct talks between the two sides, in a phone call with Modi. The Indian side, after months of firefighting repeated humiliations from Trump, are wary that such an occasion could spring surprises. They cite Vietnam, whose negotiations last month took a turn after Trump got on a call with the country’s leader. “The experience of Vietnam weighs heavily on the Indian side, in being very careful about that leader-level phone call becoming an occasion to renegotiate — with the advantage of a social media post in Trump’s hands,” said Ashok Malik, a former Indian government adviser. Source: NY Times Why is Modi so scared of a direct phone call with his 'friend' Trump? Modi is so scared of getting humiliated by Trump. I mean Who wouldn't when you are dealing with a moron like Trump @Lone Wolf @New guy

Unlike India’s rough week, Pakistan has been riding high. Trump set its tariff rate at 19 percent, in line with its Asian peers, and below India’s 25 percent. Shehbaz Sharif, Pakistan’s prime minister, wrote that it reflects a “landmark deal” with the United States. Trump also extolled Pakistan’s “massive oil reserves” and plans for American companies to drill them. Paired with Trump’s unrelated insults about India’s trade practices and reliance on Russian oil, his kind words for Pakistan make it look like he has picked a side. Pakistan thanked Trump profusely after he took credit for a cease-fire between the two neighbors in May. India has spent months politely downplaying Trump’s role.

Bangladesh is jubilant over having its rate reduced to 20 percent, even though that is roughly twice as high as the barrier it faces today. The country’s economy is highly dependent on the export of garments and the United States is its single biggest market. Its interim government – a year after the ouster of an autocrat – is wobbly. “We proudly congratulate the Bangladesh tariff negotiators on securing a landmark trade deal with the United States, a decisive diplomatic victory,” the country’s interim leader, the Nobel-peace-prize-winning economist Muhammad Yunus, told the press. RIP Indian Textile Exports.

Bangla boys have the advantage now in the export of garments over India. we are at a disadvantage as of now.

The audacity of this dude to still throw dirt at Biden and Kamala Harris while fawning over Trump is exactly the reason why so many Indians are dehati.

Lol Kamala would have been much better than Trump. Stop smoking ganja. Look at the policies of Democrats and Republicans. Stop being swayed by emotions. There is no chance of a 3rd party coming into power. Deal with the reality and not with dreams.

Classic case of "Leopards ate my face". I have no sympathy for Indian Americans who voted for Trump. I honestly wish some of the Indian Americans especially Hindus and Christians gets deported to El Salvador prison for a month by mistake even if they hold the citizenship or green card. At least then, they will realise what they have done by supporting Trump. H1B children and Green card children might also be affected due to this. Latino Americans are the number 1 POC group to vote for Trump and they will be the most affected. Classic. Latinos are already the most affected by ICE. If we are being honest, all brown people (Latino, Middle Eastern, Indian) are targetted by ICE.

Rahul Gandhi has the same mentality that Indian Americans have. They think being rich makes them white. Indian Americans especially hindu idiots voted for Trump.

You are spot on about Trump 1.0 and Trump 2.0. Trump 1.0 was controlled by establishment republicans. Trump being the moron he is was controlled by establishment republicans. Trump 2.0 is him being who he is. He controls the republican party now. He appoints unqualified people to federal positions. Stephen Miller is a big racist POS. Kash Patel is under qualified. RFK Jr is a conspiracy theorist. Emil Bove who is a shady bastard has been nominated for Federal Judge which is a lifelong post. Trump is transactional President with no ideology. Indian Think tanks have all expressed concerns on Trump 2.0 being transactional and how Indian govt will struggle to find common grounds. You know what's the worst part? Will MAGA republicans follow Trump after his term is done? White nationalism is mainstream. Nick Fuentes is mainstream. Calling Indians "Jeets" is mainstream. All thanks to POCs who voted for Trump. Every Hindu who voted for Trump should be embarrassed.

When I say Apple, I mean Foxconn and Tata Electronics.

Electronics, auto components and pharmaceuticals are the main exports. Textiles will also get most affected as Vietnam is our competitor. Why should Apple open its assembly/manufacturing plant in India when Vietnam has only 20 percent tariffs add to the fact that Vietnam has so many Chinese companies inside their country? We are cooked.

USA, Canada, Australia, Ireland, Europe, UK - white nationalism is surging in all these countries. CANADA - Easily the worst place for Indians or any subcontinent people right now. Online anti-Indian racism is at an all time high due to racist whites in Canada. AUSTRALIA - Most Racist country on the planet. Yet Indians migrate like brain dead morons to this countries. Indian Australian kids will grow with self hatred, inferiority complex and will hate their own culture and identity. IRELAND - HATRED AGAINST POC IS WILD. GARDAI don't take action against racist teens. USA is the best option and Trump is ruining it.

Indian textiles, Pharmaceuticals, electronics and auto components will be affected because of the 25 percent tariffs. Apple I-Phone manufacturing in India loses all advantages with 25 percent tariffs. We need tariffs to be reduced to 10 or 15 percent to even compete with Vietnam which is a competitor to India in both textiles and electronics.

What Has Being a ‘True Friend’ to Trump Gotten Modi? Not Much, Indians Say. India’s prime minister has made a big effort to build closer ties using his rapport with the U.S. president, but critics say he is getting little in return. Trump 2.0: 1. United States deported planeloads of Indian immigrants in shackles. Images of the deportations caused a political storm at home for an image-conscious Mr. Modi, signaling from the U.S. that he should not expect Indians to be treated more sensitively than any other nationality. 2. When India took military action against Pakistan President Trump, who had in the past penalized Pakistan for being a “safe haven for terrorists,” essentially treated both countries as equals. When they agreed to a cease-fire, Mr. Trump went on to repeatedly claim that he had forced the deal on New Delhi, much to the embarrassment of Mr. Modi. As the Indian leader tried to control the damage at home, Mr. Trump added salt to the wound by inviting Pakistan’s powerful army chief to lunch, a departure from established protocol. 3. A large number of positions dealing with Indian issues, including the post of the U.S. ambassador to New Delhi, are still vacant six months into the administration’s tenure. 4. Now, 25 % Tariffs on Indian goods plus a penalty for Russian oil purchase. Note: India’s exports to the United States have been growing rapidly, making the U.S. its largest trading partner. Trade in goods alone between the countries is estimated to be about $130 billion, with pharmaceuticals and electronics — including Apple’s new iPhones — among India’s major exports. Conclusion: "India’s primary challenge is that, for the first time in 35 years, it is faced with an American administration that is not driven by strategic altruism, "said Dr. Aparna Pande, the director of the India Initiative at Hudson Institute. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/31/world/asia/modi-trump-india-tariffs.html @New guy @Lone Wolf @IndianRenegade @Chaos @Stan AF @Mariyam

They will not learn buddy. These idiots will never learn. Indian Americans are the most spineless people I have ever seen. How the hell are they still simping for Trump?

World will be a much better place if you can stop thinking about "pakistan". Trump is a pedo and a rapist. Yet Hindu Americans, Latino Americans and Muslim Americans voted for this moron thinking they are model minority. You are just like Vivek Ramaswamy. White Ass licker.
