New Delhi/IBNS_CMEDIA: In a strong response to US President Donald Trump’s 50 percent tariffs on Indian imports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said his country won’t compromise and he is even “ready to pay heavy personal price”.
The Prime Minister made the remark addressing the MS Swaminathan Centenary International Conference in Delhi.
“For us, the welfare of our farmers is the highest priority. India will never compromise on the interests of its farmers, livestock rearers, and fisherfolk. I know I will have to pay a heavy personal price for this. But I am ready,” Modi said.
“For the fisherfolk of my country, for the livestock rearers of my country — today, India is ready. We are continuously working towards increasing farmers’ income and creating new sources of livelihood,” he added.
