The Indian Congress has openly criticized the Modi government's handling of trade negotiations with the US, claiming Prime Minister Narendra Modi has compromised the interests of Indian farmers to appease US President Donald Trump.

High-ranking Congress officials, including Jairam Ramesh, have demanded that the details of these trade agreements be presented in Parliament for a thorough debate. They argue that transparency is crucial, especially in light of claims that India has liberalized agricultural imports from the US.

The Congress also raised concerns about shifts in India's oil procurement policies and emphasized the need to protect India's sovereignty and core interests in sensitive sectors like agriculture, dairy, and pharmaceuticals. The party insists that the government must openly discuss these agreements to ensure accountability.
