India, U.S. presently engaged in active negotiations on Bilateral Trade Agreement: Govt in Parliament
Teams of both India and the U.S. are presently engaged in "active negotiations" on the Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA), the government informed Parliament on Thursday (July 24, 2025). In a written response to a query in the Rajya Sabha, Minister of State for External Affairs Kirti Vardhan Singh also said, "Discussions are aimed at adopting an integrated approach to further strengthen and deepen bilateral trade relations, including through enhanced mutual market access, reduction of tariff and non-tariff barriers, and closer integration of supply chains." The Ministry of External Affairs was asked by Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi whether the government has taken note of the recent announcement by the U.S. administration regarding the reimposition of tariffs on Indian exports. "On the sidelines of the Quad Foreign Ministers' Meeting held in Washington, DC on 1 July 2025, the External Affairs Minister referred to the Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA) negotiations that are going on between India and the U.S.," Mr. Singh said. Both sides acknowledged the importance of "maintaining positive momentum" in these negotiations and expressed their commitment to an early conclusion of the first tranche of a mutually beneficial, multi-sector BTA, the MoS said. "The trade teams of both countries are presently engaged in active negotiations on the Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA)," he added. Mr. Singh said that on April 2, 2025, the U.S. announced the imposition of additional ad valorem reciprocal duties on 185 countries (including the European Union). As per the order, a 10% tariff was imposed on all countries effective April 5 this year. From April 9, this was to be revised to "country-specific tariffs". "The reciprocal tariff applicable to India was fixed at 26%. Subsequently, a 90-day pause, till 9 July 2025, was authorised with substantially lower reciprocal tariff of 10 per cent. On 7 July 2025, the implementation date for the reciprocal tariffs was further extended from 9 July 2025 to 1 August 2025," he added.

Starlink suffers rare global outage, disrupting internet access worldwide; Elon Musk apologizes
For thousands of people around the world, the internet simply stopped working on Thursday(July 24), not because of local infrastructure issues or weather, but because Starlink , the satellite internet service operated by Elon Musk 's SpaceX, suffered a rare, global outage. "Starlink is currently in a network outage and we are actively implementing a solution," the company said in a brief statement posted to X (formerly Twitter) around 4 pm ET.

'They're not carrying any traffic right now,' Madory told Reuters. 'This level of disruption is very unusual for Starlink; they haven't had anything this widespread in a long time.' Live Events Downdetector, a website that tracks internet service issues based on user reports, showed over 60,000 complaints globally by late afternoon. Timing of the outage The outage occurred just one day after T-Mobile rolled out its new Starlink-powered 'T-Satellite' service, designed to enable phones to connect directly to satellites in areas with no traditional signal. While SpaceX hasn't linked the outage to the rollout, the timing has drawn scrutiny. Starlink did not immediately respond to requests for further comment. As of Thursday evening, some services appeared to be returning online in parts of the US and Europe, but full restoration may take time. With more than 7,600 satellites in orbit and millions of users in over 70 countries, Starlink is one of the largest satellite internet providers in the world.

IIM-N to teach foreign languages to hone desi skills with global edge
Nagpur: The premier B-school, IIM Nagpur, is now planning to teach foreign languages in the perfect business accent. Starting off with teaching practical Japanese, including all the business and technical jargon, the institute also intends to begin courses in Korean, Spanish, and French in coming days. To facilitate Japanese language teaching, the institute is considering collaboration with the automobile giant Suzuki Corporation to source experts. Bringing in a trainer directly from a business organization is expected to help deliver the language in a more practical and industry-relevant manner. Additionally, a partnership with the English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU) is being explored. This initiative was revealed by IIM director Bhimraya Metri during the inaugural session of Viksit Bharat 2024: Global Perspective to Shape India's Future Workforce and Industry Partnership. Metri told TOI that the objective behind this move is to equip not only management graduates but also the broader workforce across various professions to take up jobs in foreign countries, especially Japan. Japan faces significant manpower shortage due to its ageing population — a gap that India can help fill. Learning Japanese would facilitate the integration of the Indian workforce into Japanese businesses. There is a substantial demand for skilled manpower in Japan. Even passouts from Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) can be trained in Japanese, which would boost their employability, including with Japanese companies operating in India, Metri said. IIM Nagpur's plan is to prepare Indian talent for global opportunities. Shortly after the seminar, UAE-based Octagon, led by managing director Sukant Mishra, participated in the event and extended a pre-placement offer (PPO) to IIM-N students. This means that students may be absorbed into the company if they prove suitable during the internships, Metri added. Former member of Parliament Ajay Sancheti, who was chief guest on the occasion, recalled his early experiences in Singapore, describing how India has now transformed into a global growth engine. He urged the students to think beyond urban development and contribute to inclusive national growth.
