A strategic pivot awaits Indian businesses as the EU FTA promises $10-11 billion in new export avenues. Rubix Data Sciences’ report, released Friday, paints an optimistic picture: India can achieve this without expanding capacities by rerouting US-impacted exports. US exports from India, dominated by 15 key categories totaling $45 billion (52% share), offer prime redirection candidates. Twelve categories worth $21 billion barely scratch the EU import surface. Gradually shifting 50% via lower tariffs and enhanced access could transform bilateral trade. Stagnant at $136.5 billion over FY23-FY25, India-EU trade saw the EU claim top partner status in FY25, eclipsing the US.…

Tensions flared in Parliament as Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, dodged referencing the ‘Jee Ram Jee’ scheme by name, prompting a fierce rebuttal from NDA allies. BJP’s Prem Shukla labeled it a sign of Gandhi’s ‘Mughal mindset,’ drawing parallels to his historical visits and perceived cultural disconnects. In an exclusive interview, Shukla pointed out the irony: ‘He bows at Babur’s grave but objects to Lord Ram in a rural welfare plan.’ This rhetoric positions the Congress scion as out of touch with India’s civilizational ethos, a narrative the BJP has long pushed.

Quoting Charaka: ‘Through exercise, one attains health, long life, vigor, and bliss.’ Skip it, and face the consequences: fat buildup triggers obesity and diabetes as…
