Inter-departmental huddle on textile trade amid EU, US FTA talks
The Commerce and Industry Ministry is set to hold a inter-departmental meeting on Tuesday to formulate textile export strategy amid the ongoing free trade agreement (FTA) negotiations with the European Union and the United States, The Indian Express has learned. The meeting will be attended by officials from Commerce ministry, Finance Ministry and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) among others and is expected to discuss policy levers that could help Indian textile exporters gain a stronger foothold in key Western markets. The textile sector—one of India's largest employment generators and a major foreign exchange earner—has emerged as a priority area in the country's FTA push, particularly due to its labour-intensive nature and its potential to benefit from tariff concessions in the US and EU markets. While India's apparel exports have long faced stiff competition from lower-cost producers like Bangladesh and Vietnam, trade deals with the EU and US could offer Indian exporters a competitive edge through preferential access. The meeting is expected to focus on ironing out issues such as export financing, compliance with quality and sustainability standards, and the role of production-linked incentives (PLI), as India looks to position its textile industry as a major beneficiary of its expanding trade partnerships.

Cyprus, Croatia squeezed into PM Modi's itinerary
NEW DELHI: As India works to expand its footprint in Europe, PM Narendra Modi will visit Cyprus on his way to Canada for the G7 summit and Croatia while returning home. Both Cyprus and Croatia are members of the EU and the former will hold the rotating presidency of the EU Council for the first half of the next year. Modi was scheduled to travel to Croatia last month, along with the Netherlands and Norway, but the visit had to be postponed because of the military tensions between India and Pakistan. The visit to Cyprus, only the third by an Indian PM after A B Vajpayee in 2002 and Indira Gandhi in 1983, will also be followed closely as it comes in the middle of recent tensions between India and Turkiye over the latter's support to Pakistan in the middle of the India-Pakistan military clash last month.
