The recently signed India-UK Free Trade Agreement (FTA) is being hailed by British media as one of the most significant post-Brexit trade successes. Signed at Chequers by Prime Ministers Narendra Modi and Keir Starmer, the deal is expected to boost bilateral trade by over $34 billion annually. UK media emphasized its economic benefits—projecting a £4.8 billion GDP boost by 2040 and improved access to India's vast market. Described as a "landmark" and "game-changer," the agreement marks a diplomatic triumph and is seen as strengthening strategic ties between two global democracies. (PC: Reuters)
