India seeks review of US’ forced labour investigation
India has requested a review of the proposed 12.5% US tariffs related to forced labour allegations, arguing inconsistencies in the US Trade Representative's (USTR) investigation. Joint Secretary in the Department of Commerce Brij Mohan Mishra emphasized India's commitment to eliminating forced labour as a constitutional and international obligation. The US is set to implement these tariffs starting July 24, raising concerns over their justification and impact on trade.
