Modi to meet Trump in Washington to discuss trade and immigration issues

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will meet U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington on Thursday. This meeting comes as India plans to cut tariffs on American goods to avoid a trade war and address recent deportations of Indian migrants from the U.S. Modi's government is preparing to reduce tariffs in various sectors, including electronics and medical equipment. The two leaders are expected to discuss trade, immigration, and defense, with a focus on strengthening bilateral relations amid rising tensions with China. The meeting follows a controversial deportation of over 100 Indian migrants, which has sparked anger in India. Modi's administration is also seeking to protect legal migration pathways for Indians, particularly for skilled worker visas.
