As someone working in exports, smoother trade flows with the US would be a game-changer. The current tariffs and non-tariff barriers are a major hurdle. Fingers crossed this framework leads to real, actionable agreements soon.

Promising news for job seekers! "Generate large-scale employment for India's youth" is the phrase we need to see materialize. But I hope the agreement also protects our farmers' interests and doesn't just flood the market with US agricultural imports.

Good strategic move. Strong ties with the US are crucial for countering China's influence and for technology transfer. However, the timing of this announcement alongside election campaigning in Kerala makes it feel a bit political. The focus should remain on the deal's substance.

"Resilient supply chains" is the key takeaway here. The pandemic and global tensions showed the risks of over-concentration. Diversifying with a trusted partner like India makes sense for the US, and it's a huge opportunity for our manufacturing sector.

Hope the "blue economy" mention means something concrete for our coastal communities and fisheries, not just a buzzword. And what about easier visas for Indian professionals? That's a major part of any real trade partnership with the US.
