Piyush Goyal on Friday rejected reports suggesting that India is planning to delay a trade deal with the United States for several months.
Speaking at the NXT Summit 2026 in New Delhi, the Union minister dismissed the claims as baseless. “There is some absolutely baseless report circulating from today morning
which you should trash.
There is absolutely no basis in it at all. We have a very good trade agreement with the United States of America,” Goyal said.
He added that the agreement is a win-win arrangement for both countries and that India has successfully protected its sensitive sectors.
