Rahul Gandhi's strong attack on Modi: Compromise of national interest in India-US trade agreement?
February 21, 2026 - The consequences of the controversy over former US President Donald Trump's tariff policy are now visible in Indian politics. While the US Supreme Court has declared the tariffs imposed by Trump illegal, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has strongly criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He directly accused the country of compromising the interests of the country in the India-US trade agreement.
Within hours of the Supreme Court's decision on Trump's tariffs, he announced the implementation of a 10 percent tariff globally. He announced that he would impose a 10% global tariff on all countries of the world by signing a new order.
Against this backdrop, Rahul Gandhi targeted Prime Minister Modi by posting on social media platform X. He said, "The Prime Minister made the deal. His deception has now been exposed. He cannot negotiate again; if he does, he will surrender again."
The PM is compromised.
His betrayal now stands exposed.
He can’t renegotiate.
He will surrender again.

Earlier, Rahul Gandhi has repeatedly criticized the government on the issue of trade agreements and tariffs. He had questioned the policies of the Modi government in Parliament and on public platforms. There was a strong political storm on this issue during the budget session as well.
Discussions on a trade agreement between India and the US had been going on for a long time. After resolving differences in various areas, an agreement was reached in early February and the agreement was officially announced on February 7. According to this agreement, Indian agricultural products have been allowed to be exported to the US at zero tariffs. However, American agricultural producers have not been given special tariff concessions in India. The government claims that there has been no compromise with the interests of farmers and dairy farmers.
